This is a creamy brown sugar cheesecake with a rich pecan pie layer. A vanilla wafer crust gives the pie a crisp crust and adds a nice shortbread flavor. It pairs nicely with the caramelized pecan pie layer. The whipped topping adds another creamy element to this dessert that we loved.
Note: This may drip while baking. To catch the drips, add some water to a cookie sheet and place that on the rack below the cheesecake.
