Ingredients

• 24 cookies Chocolate sandwich cookies
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 14 ounces Soft caramels
• 1.5 cups Heavy cream
• 1 cup Pecans, chopped
• 1.5 cups Semisweet chocolate chips
• 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
• 0.75 cup Powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Place the chocolate sandwich cookies in a food processor and pulse until finely crushed.

Step 2

Melt the unsalted butter and combine it with the crushed cookies in a mixing bowl. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.

Step 3

Press the cookie mixture evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form the crust. Place the crust in the refrigerator to set while preparing the filling.

Step 4

In a medium saucepan, melt the soft caramels with 0.5 cups of heavy cream over low heat, stirring constantly, until smooth and fully combined.

Step 5

Pour the caramel mixture onto the chilled crust, spreading it evenly. Sprinkle half of the chopped pecans over the caramel layer. Refrigerate to cool and set for about 15 minutes.

Step 6

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semisweet chocolate chips with 0.5 cups of heavy cream in 20-second intervals, stirring after each, until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.

Step 7

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

Step 8

Add the remaining 0.5 cups of heavy cream to the cream cheese mixture and beat on medium speed until light and fluffy.

Step 9

Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the caramel and pecan layer.

Step 10

Drizzle the melted chocolate mixture over the cream cheese layer, spreading evenly if desired. Sprinkle the remaining chopped pecans over the top.

Step 11

Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours or until fully set.

Step 12

Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy this rich, indulgent Turtle Pie!
