INSTRUCTIONS
-
Toast the pecans by placing them in a heavy bottomed pan on a medium heat for about 5-8 minutes. Keep turning them so that they do not burn. Set aside to cool

Place the pecans in a food processor and blitz until the nuts are ground. Be careful not to over process as you will end up with pecan butter.

In a bowl, mix the ground pecans, butter, erythritol and vanilla.

Line a spring-form 8-inch cake tin with parchment paper.

Spoon the base mixture into the cake tin and spread evenly, pressing down so the base is firm. Place in the fridge to firm whilst you make the filling
FILLING
-
Place the cream cheese in a bowl and whisk until smooth.

Add the cream, erythritol and vanilla and continue to whisk until the mixture is smooth, thick and creamy.
