This is a really interesting combination of things that work well on their own, but make for something quite different when mixed together. I can easily see the chocolate-caramel-pecan mix since that's basically a turtle candy. The sort of cheesecake-like topping is something I'll definitely have to try. It looks like it would be quite delicious but the jury is out on this until I can actually whip one together.

Pecan pie and caramel and cream cheese?! Wow, I can't wait to make this. I am gathering recipes for Memorial Day weekend, and this made the file. I think this will make a great sweet and salty dessert that my whole family will enjoy. I like anything that involves pecans and caramel!

Chocolate in Pecan pie? That's something I never thought would go together and to be honest, not sure I'd ever try...but I do love me some Pecan pie. I was wondering the same thing about the sour cream Sharrell...for a healthier version I was thinking maybe Greek yogurt and what a great idea using the caramel ice cream topping.

This sounds very delicious. I love pecan pie. I love pecans just by themselves. Is the sour cream needed for this recipe? Can you substitute something else for it? I am not a fan of sour cream. I guess if cooked into a recipe it would be ok if it does not have the flavor of the sour cream.

I love pecan pie, but on its own it is just too sweet and I can never eat much at a time. The cream cheese layer cuts down on the too sweet factor. I also like the dark chocolate chips added. This is a pie that I could eat a lot of.
