Notes
Toast the chopped pecans for 5–7 minutes over medium heat until golden and fragrant, then let them cool before assembling. Whip the heavy cream to soft peaks and gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture to keep the filling light and fluffy. Layer the graham cracker crumbs, cream mixture, toasted pecans, and caramel sauce in a serving dish or individual cups, finishing with caramel sauce on top. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. This is a no-bake dessert after toasting the pecans. Yield is estimated at 6 servings. Nutrition values are approximate and depend on the caramel sauce and other brands used.
