- 1 cup chopped pecans
- 1 tablespoon butter or margarine
- 1 (11 ounce) package REESE'S® Peanut Butter and Milk Chocolate Chips

- 2 (3 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
- 2/3 cup powdered sugar
- 1 (1.3 ounce) envelope dry whipped topping mix
- 1 packaged crumb crust (6 oz.)

- Heat oven to 325 degrees F. Place pecans and butter in baking pan; toast in oven about 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until butter is melted and nuts are coated. Set aside to cool.
- Meanwhile, place chips and milk in medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave at HIGH (100%) 1 minute; stir. If necessary, microwave an additional 15 seconds at a time, stirring after each heating, just until chips are melted when stirred; cool 10 minutes.
- Beat cream cheese and powdered sugar until fluffy in large mixer bowl; blend in chocolate mixture. Prepare whipped topping mix according to package directions; fold into chocolate mixture. Fold in 1/2 cup toasted pecans; pour into crust. Wrap tightly; freeze 4 to 6 hours or until firm. Garnish with whipped cream and remaining pecans.
