Directions:

Sprinkle pecans evenly in unbaked pastry shell; sprinkle with chocolate chips and drizzle with caramel topping. Set aside. In a medium mixing bowl combine cream cheese, sour cream, sugar and vanilla; beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Add eggs, beating on low speed just until combined.

Pour over caramel topping in crust. Bake in a 350 deg oven about 45 minutes or until center appears set. Cool on a wire rack. Cover and chill for at least 1 hour before serving. Sift cocoa powder over pie, if desired.
