8 ounces cool whip lite

8 ounces light cream cheese

1 cup pecan halves, divided
Directions:
1. toast pecans over medium heat for about 5 minutes.
2. coarsely chop half of the pecans and set aside.
3. melt chocolate in microwave for about 20 seconds and stir, repeat if necessary until smooth.
4. pour 2/3 of the melted chocolate into the crust and smooth with a spoon
5. sprinkle the chopped pecans over the chocolate covered crust and set aside.
6. in a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, vanilla, and marshmallow creme until smooth.
7. fold in coolwhip.
8. fold in 2/3 of the caramel sauce until just ribboned through.
9. pour mixture into pie crust.
10. drizzle with remaining caramel sauce and melted chocolate.
11. top with remaining pecans.
