If you love the buttery richness of traditional pecan pie but crave something a little lighter, creamier, and even more indulgent, meet your new favorite dessert: Pecan Cream Pie.
This dreamy version swaps the classic corn syrup filling for a velvety vanilla or bourbon-infused custard base, then layers in toasted pecans for crunch and depth. The result? A slice that’s silky-smooth, perfectly sweet, and packed with nutty flavor — all nestled in a flaky homemade crust.
It’s like pecan pie and chess pie had a delicious lovechild… baked to golden perfection.
Perfect for Thanksgiving, Sunday dinners, or anytime you need a show-stopping dessert that still feels like home.
Let’s make something unforgettable. 💛
