| Pecan pie or cheesecake? Try a bite of both with this no-bake New York-style cheesecake smothered in caramelized pecans. The inspired combination of creamy cheesecake, gooey caramel, and crunchy pecans is a two-in-one treat, perfect for parties, special dinners or starting a new Thanksgiving tradition. Be generous with the caramel -- and don't be afraid to let it drip down the sides. It just looks more homemade. Serves 12 to 16 2 boxes (11.1 ounces each) real cheesecake dessert mix, Jell-O No Bake® 3/4 cup butter, melted 1/4 cup granulated sugar 2 tablespoons water 2 1/2 cups cold whole milk 1 cup butterscotch caramel sauce, Mrs. Richardson's ® 1 cup pecans, toasted, chopped 1/2 cup golden brown sugar, packed Prep time: 10 minutes Chilling time: 5 hours Preparation: Line bottom of 9-inch-diameter spring form pan with parchment or wax paper. Mix 2 packages of crust, melted butter, sugar, and water in large bowl until well blended. Reserve 1 cup of crumb mixture for topping. Press remaining crumb mixture onto bottom of prepared pan (not up sides). Combine 2 packages of cheesecake filling and cold milk in another large bowl. Beat for 3 minutes, or until smooth and thick.
