Preparation Steps

• Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x13 inch baking dish with parchment paper.
• In a medium bowl, combine crushed graham crackers, sugar, and melted butter. Press evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form the crust.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the beaten eggs and caramel topping. Pour this mixture evenly over the crust.
• Sprinkle the chocolate chips and chopped pecans over the caramel layer.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown and the caramel is set.
• While the crust is baking, prepare the whipped topping. In a large bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
• Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping until well combined.
• Once the baked layer has cooled slightly, spread the whipped topping mixture evenly over the top.
• Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before cutting into bars and serving.
