["Place rack in the center of the oven then preheat to 350 degrees. Spray a 9"" x 13"" cake pan with cooking spray then set aside.", "To make the crust, pulse pecans in a food processor until they are finely chopped. Add flour, 2 tbsp sugar and salt then pulse a few more times until the ingredients are just combined. Pour in 1 stick of melted butter and pulse until a coarse paste has formed. Press crust evenly into the bottom of cake pan then place it in oven for 1012 minutes until crust is golden brown. Remove pan from oven and cool completely.", "Meanwhile, beat cream cheese until smooth then add 1 cup powdered sugar and mix until combined. Allow mixture to sit at room temperature while you prepare the pudding and whipped cream.", "For the pudding, whisk 3/4 cup granulated sugar, cornstarch and salt in a small saucepan, away from heat, until no lumps remain. Whisk in egg yolks followed immediately by whole milk and evaporated milk. Transfer saucepan to stove and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until liquid comes to a bubble. Once you see the first bubble burst on the surface of the pudding, cook 1 minute longer, stirring constantly.", "Remove pudding from heat then immediately whisk in 3 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoon vanilla. Pour liquid into a bowl then place a sheet of plastic wrap directly onto the surface-this will prevent a film from forming on the surface. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes.", "To make the whipped cream, add heavy whipping cream, 1/4 cup powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla to a mixing bowl then whip on high speed until stiff peaks form. Cover and refrigerate until you're ready to assemble your puddin' 'n' pie.", "Once pudding and crust are cool, spread cream cheese over crust, followed by the pudding, then the whipped cream-all in even layers. Allow the pie to chill in the fridge 23 hours, then cut and serve!"]

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
Coconut cream is a reliable plant-based alternative to dairy cream.
