INDIVIDUAL PECAN PIES WITH SWEET TEA CARAMEL SAUCE

Steps:

• In a food processor combine the ground pecans, flour, salt, and sugar. Add the butter and process until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Pour in the egg white and blend it in to bind the dough until it holds together without being too wet or sticky. Squeeze a small amount of dough together, if it is crumbly, add the ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
• Lightly coat a 12-cup muffin tray with nonstick spray. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to about a 2 foot square, then use a small bowl 3-inches in diameter or a large 3-inch ring mold as a guide to cut out circles. They should be slightly larger in diameter than the muffin tin hole, so when pressed in, the edges come half-way up the sides of the tin.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large mixing bowl, mix the eggs until frothy then blend in sugars. Stir in the melted butter, vanilla, syrup and salt until well blended. Arrange the pecans on the bottoms of the tart shells. Pour in the filling to fill the shells almost to the top. Bake until the filling is set and slightly puffed, about 25 to 30 minutes. Test for doneness by sticking a thin knife in the center of the pie, if it comes out pretty clean, you're good to go. Transfer the pies to a rack and cool.
• While the pie is baking, make the Sweet Tea Caramel Sauce. Begin my making the tea. Bring 2 cups of cold water to a boil in a large heavy saucepan. Add the tea bags, cover and let steep for 20 minutes. Remove the tea bags (squeeze them out) and then return to a simmer until it has reduced by half - so you have 1 cup of really strong tea remaining. Add the 1/2 cup of sugar to the saucepan and continue to simmer over medium heat. Cook, swirling the pot around, until the mixture is a deep caramel color and looks like syrup, about 10 minutes. Carefully pour in the cream, be careful as it will bubble up, and continue to cook for 1 more minute. Serve with individual pecan pies and a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream.

PECAN PIE CHEESECAKE WITH CARAMEL-PECAN SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375ºF, coat a 9-inch springform pan with nonstick spray and wrap entire outside of pan in foil; set aside.
• MAKE THE CRUST:.
• Process chocolate wafers and the 1/2 cup pecans for the crust in a food processor until fine.
• With processor running, drizzle in the melted butter.
• Press mixture into the bottom of the pan (tamping the crust with a heavy, flat-bottomed object like a glass or measuring cup ensures a firm crust) & bake for 10 minutes.
• Reduce oven to 325ºF.
• MAKE THE CHEESECAKE:.
• Beat cream cheese, 1 stick butter, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 brown sugar, and table salt in a large bowl until mixture is fluffy, periodically scraping sides of the bowl.

• Add 1/2 cup cream, 1/4 cup bourbon and vanilla; beat until ingredients are completely incorporated into batter.
• Pour filling over crust, smoothing the top of filling.
• Transfer cheesecake to a roasting pan; place in the oven.
• Pour boiling water into the roasting pan a third of the way up the sides of the foil-wrapped springform pan. (A water bath surrounds the cake with gentle even heat, reducing the possibility that it will crack on top.).
• Bake cheesecake until it reaches 155º and sides are set but center still jiggles, about 1 hour.
• Turn off the oven, leave cheesecake inside for an hour with oven door closed. (In other recipes I have read that one should leave the door ajar - here we did the way they said & it was splendid!).
• Remove cheesecake from oven; cool to room temperature.
• Cover cheesecake with plastic wrap; chill 3-24 hours before using.
• Remove from refrigerator 30 minutes before serving.

• Combine the 1 1/2 cups brown sugar, 1/2 cup cream, 1/2 stick butter, 1/4 cup bourbon and kosher salt for the sauce in a saucepan.
• Bring mixture to a boil over medium-low heat. (Don't stir topping, but keep a close eye on it so it doesn't boil over.).
• Simmer topping 10 minutes.
• Stir the 1 1/2 cups pecans into the caramel topping.
• Let topping stand until slightly thickened and cooed to room temperature, 15-20 minutes.
• To serve, spoon sauce over cheesecake. (Serve remaining sauce on in dividual slices.).
