This recipe was easy and and very tasty. It's not overbearingly sweet like many pecan pies.

I only started baking about 3 years ago, and this was my first pie. My father in law's favorite is pecan and I always thought it was way too sweet. But putting in the cream cheese cuts down on that. Now this is a much requested recipe and have made it at least 5-6 times. I really don't understand why some folks have had problems with this, I'm such a novice baker and it has turned out perfectly each time. Maybe they're not using deep dish pie crusts? Can't say, but this is absolutely delicious.

I would like it a little sweeter and maybe more vanilla. I love Paula, but this recipe was only "ok". However, It did make a pretty pie.

So I sure would like to know what everyone who gave this a good review did to make this pie turn out because I followed the instructions to the letter and ended up with a huge mess. My filling mixed with my cream cheese mixture when I poured the filling over it. After baking for 45 minutes it was no where near done, nor was it 30 minutes later after leaving it in there. I had really high hopes for this which made me even more disappointed. Plus, I was trying this out on my in-laws. Luckily I had a back up chocolate pie I could serve them.

I swear this is the best pie I have ever eaten! As some other review suggest, you should chill this before you eat it. Then it tastes almost like a cheesecake with pecan pie on top and who in this world can beat that?! It is so delicious, I promise if you follow the directions and you like cheesecake and pecan pie, you will absolutely fall in love!

I've made a zillion pies over the years and this is the first pie I ever made that I did not like. Pecan pie is a favorite at our house and I like to try new recipes. I'll never make this one again. No one liked it.

I have been making this exact recipe for more than 20 years and it's the only pecan pie I ever make. Paula didn't invent this, but it's delicious and I'm always asked for the recipe.

I made this pie on Christmas, and everyone loved it. I followed the recipe exactly and it came out perfect. I didn't use a deep dish pie pan, so I couldn't use all of the topping. There was probably 1/4 to 1/2 cup left, but it still made a delicious candied top.

This is the only Pecan Pie I enjoy. The trick I learned over the years was if my pie came out gooey as some claim or did not set up properly. I used medium sized eggs and have never had a problem since. This was a pie my Great Grandmother used to make and is the only for me.

I made this pie for Thanksgiving and it was a hit with everybody. It wasn't too sweet but plenty rich. I followed her directions, then chilled the pie as per some reviewer's recomendations. Yummy.
