The decadent taste and texture of pecan pie is a staple of the holidays. And adding in the rich flavor of cappuccino just takes this classic dessert to a whole new level. After feasting on this, your family will have one more thing to add to their thankful list!

Ingredients:
1 (9-oz) refrigerated ready-to-use pie crust
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
4 large eggs
1 (16-oz) jar butterscotch or caramel dessert sauce
6 T. instant cappuccino coffee mix
½ tsp. ground cinnamon
7 ounces pecan halves

Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Unfold the pie crust into a 9-inch pie plate.  Crumble the brown sugar in an even layer over the crust.

In a large bowl, slightly whisk the eggs to break up.  Stir in the butterscotch sauce, cappuccino coffee mix and cinnamon and blend well.  Stir in pecan halves. 

Pour the filling into the crust.  Bake in 350 degree oven until the center of the filling is just set, 45 to 50 minutes.  Transfer the pie to wire rack; let the pie cool completely.  Refrigerate until pie is firm, about three hours.

To serve, allow pie to come to room temperature.
