Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and ¼ cup sugar until well mixed. Press into the bottom of a springform pan to form the crust. Bake for about 10 minutes or until golden.
In another bowl, beat cream cheese with ¾ cup sugar until smooth. Add vanilla and eggs one at a time; mix until just combined. Gently fold in chopped pecans.
Pour the cheesecake filling over the pre-baked crust and bake for 50–60 minutes until set around the edges but slightly jiggly in the center.
For the topping, combine brown sugar and corn syrup in a saucepan over medium heat until melted; stir constantly for about two minutes.
Once baked, pour the topping over the warm cheesecake. Let cool at room temperature before refrigerating for at least four hours or overnight before serving.
