Ingredients You'll Need

1/2 cup unsalted butter
1/2 cup whipping cream
2 cups pecans, chopped in small pieces, roasted
Second Layer:
2 cups powdered sugar (10X), sifted
1/2 pound unsalted butter, softened
4 eggs (may use eggbeaters)
4 sq. (1 oz. ea.) unsweetened chocolate, melted and cooled
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Third Layer:

2 tablespoons milk or half-and-half
2 tablespoons sugar
3 cups thawed whipped topping
Decorative Topping:
2 cups whipping cream, whipped to stiff peaks
few caramels, melted
1 sq. (1 oz.) chocolate, melted
Directions
First Layer: Put caramels, butter and whipping cream in saucepan. Cook over low heat, stirring frequently until caramels and butter melt (use a whisk for this). Remove from heat and stir until completely smooth. Stir in pecans. Pour into baked pie shell. Refrigerate, covered, for several hours until firm.
Second Layer: Beat sugar with butter in large bowl until smooth. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Add melted chocolate; stir in vanilla extract. Mix well; spread on top of cool, firm caramel layer. Chill until ready to add cream cheese layer.
Third layer: Mix cream cheese, milk and sugar in large bowl with wire whisk until smooth. Gently stir in whipped tipping. Carefully spread over chocolate mixture.
Decorative Topping: Using pastry bag (or sandwich-type bag with corner snipped off), "Pipe" one continuous line of whipped cream around edge of cream cheese mixture, next to crust. Next, put dollops of whipped cream all over pie (circle shape , about 1 inch across- again, using pastry bag). Place pecan halves on top of pie. Keep chilled.
