For the crust:

- 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted


For the cheesecake layer:

- 16 oz cream cheese, softened

For the pecan pie layer:

- 1 cup light corn syrup
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 3 large eggs

To start, preheat your oven to 350°F and line a 9x13 inch baking dish with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, mix together the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter until well combined. Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking dish and bake for 10 minutes.
