No Bake Pecan Pie Dip
A creamy, dreamy dessert dip with layers of sweet whipped cream cheese and gooey stovetop pecan pie filling — no oven needed!
Servings 7
Ingredients
- 1 8 oz block cream cheese, softened
- 1 8 oz tub whipped topping (Cool Whip)
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 3 tbsp butter
- 1/3 cup light corn syrup
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup chopped pecans
- Biscoff cookies and apple slices for serving
Instructions
- In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Fold in whipped topping and powdered sugar until fluffy. Spread into a serving dish.
- In a saucepan, combine brown sugar, butter, corn syrup, and egg. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly until thickened and glossy (about 5–6 minutes).
- Remove from heat, stir in vanilla and pecans. Let cool slightly.
- Pour pecan topping over cream cheese layer.
- Chill for at least 30 minutes before serving or serve warm.
Notes
Soften your cream cheese before mixing for the smoothest, fluffiest texture. Cold cream cheese will leave lumps!
Toast your pecans for 5–7 minutes before adding — it deepens their flavor and gives that signature roasted crunch.
Don’t overcook the pecan layer. Remove it from heat once it thickens and coats the back of a spoon; overcooking can make it grainy as it cools.
Let the topping cool slightly before layering so it spreads evenly without melting the cream base.
Chill before serving for neat, creamy layers that hold together beautifully on a dessert table.
