A New Swirl on Pecan Pie

Pecan pie is a tried and true recipe, But Honey Sugar Pie, it's time to change it up a bit.

I took my trusty pecan pie recipe and added a cream cheese swirl to it. My dad loves pecan pie, but I'm giving him a little surprise with it this year.

"Cheesy-Pecan Swirl Pie" will be a dream come true when you eat it. You may even want to eat dessert first, and enjoy this crunchy, sweet, sticky, creamy dessert.

"I guarantee you'll do the turkey shuffle while eating it."
