Pecan Pie topped Cheesecake
THis recipe is from Delish and came complete with making the entire cheesecake plus this topping - I am lazy and not a baker very often so I bought a cheesecake and topped it with the mixture below --delish! - sorry forgot to take pic until after I had a bite!
FOR THE PECAN PIE TOPPING
4 tbsp. butter
1/2 c. brown sugar
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/4 c. heavy cream
1 3/4 c. whole or chopped pecans
pinch of kosher salt
- Before serving, make pecan pie topping: In a nonstick skillet over low heat, melt butter and brown sugar until bubbly (keep heat low to avoid burning butter). Stir in cinnamon, heavy cream, pecans, and salt until completely coated, then remove from heat and let cool and slightly thicken. (You can make the topping up to an hour in advance and keep at room temperature; don't refrigerate as the butter will solidify.)
- Release springform pan from cheesecake and spoon over cooled pecan pie topping. Serve.
