Two 8 ounce packages Cream Cheese 18 packages Equal 2 eggs 1 teaspoons Vanilla 1/2 cup chopped pecans (Optional) Mix all ingredients together until creamy like butter. Spray glass pie dish with Pam. Bake 10 minutes at 325 degrees. You can also put this in a pecan crust: 1 and 1/2 cups chopped pecans 1 cup "sugar" (use combination of sugar substitutes to equal 1 cup sugar) 1 egg white Chop the pecan pieces very finely (not to dust, but finer than chopped pecans come in a package). Add sugar and mix together. In a small bowl, lightly beat the egg white just until frothy. Add enough egg white to the pecans so that the nuts hold together in a ball when squeezed in the hand. Press mixture into the bottom of pie pan or spring form pan. Toast in a 350 F oven for 10 minutes, until pecans begin to turn light brown. Remove from oven and cool before adding pie filling. Makes enough for a 9 or 10-inch spring form pan.
