Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. (Note: Other recipes use 300, but I use 350).
- Rub a 9 inch glass pie plate (I use a deep dish) generously with butter. Alternatively, have ready a pre-baked pie crust.
- In a mixing bowl, beat egg whites and baking powder until soft peaks form. Add cream of tartar, beating constantly. Add 1 cup of sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating constantly until stiff peaks form. Beat in vanilla. Using a rubber scraper, fold in graham crackers and chopped, toasted pecans. Pour mixture into pie plate (or baked pie shell) and bake for 30 minutes.
- Let cool completely on a wire rack. The pie will sink a bit as it cools.
- Prepare topping. In a chilled bowl, using chilled beaters, beat cream until it begins to thicken. Add sugar and vanilla and continue beating until stiff peaks form. Do not overbeat. Top pie with whipped cream. Garnish with extra pecans if desired.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- For the crust: Slowly and gently unroll the pie crust. Place the crust in an ungreased 9-inch pie plate, pressing it against the sides and bottom. Refrigerate while you prepare the filling.
- For the brownie filling: In a medium saucepan over low heat, add the butter and chocolate and cook, stirring, until completely melted. Pour the chocolate mixture into a large mixing bowl. Add the granulated sugar and whisk until combined. Add the flour, vanilla, salt and eggs and mix to combine. Stir in the chocolate chips.
- Spread the filling in the bottom of the pie crust. Bake until the top is firm and the crust is golden brown, 40 to 45 minutes.
- For the pecan topping: While the pie is baking, mix the brown sugar, cinnamon, salt and nutmeg in a small bowl until blended; set aside.
- Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in large skillet over medium heat. Add the pecans and toast, stirring frequently, 3 to 4 minutes. Reduce the heat to low. Stir in the corn syrup, vanilla, remaining 1 tablespoon butter, 2 tablespoons water and the brown sugar mixture. Cook, stirring, until the butter is melted and mixture has become a thick syrup, 5 to 8 minutes.
- Top the pie with the pecan topping and add a scoop of your favorite ice cream to make it a perfect combination!

Rich, moist and chocolatey..this will please all who sample. This is a must for chocolate and brownie lovers alike. This recipe makes two pies, but after you taste it, you will be glad that you have more than one!! This is a Paula Deen recipe that I re-named, and be SURE to measure the 1 cup of flour BEFORE you sift it. This pie is so good it could be dangerous!!

Tips:
- Use a food processor to ensure the brownie layer is smooth and creamy.
- Chill the brownie layer before adding the cheesecake layer to prevent the two layers from mixing together.
- Be careful not to overmix the cheesecake batter, as this can cause the cheesecake to be dense and crumbly.
- Bake the pie in a water bath to prevent the top of the cheesecake from cracking.
- Allow the pie to cool completely before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
