Celebrate fall with these Pumpkin Cheesecake Bars with caramel, chocolate and pecan turtle topping! The combination is unbelievably incredible!

Crust:
2 1/2 c. crushed graham crackers
1/2 c. granulated sugar
1/2 c. chopped pecans
1/2 c. butter, melted
1/2 c. chocolate chips (I prefer semi-sweet)
Filling:
16 oz. (2 blocks) cream cheese, room temperature
1/4 c. sour cream
3/4 c. granulated sugar
1 Tbsp. vanilla
2 large eggs
1 c. canned pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling)
Topping:
1 c. chopped pecans (optional: toasted)
Thick caramel sauce from the jar or 3/4 bag caramels and 2-4 Tbsp. milk for thinning, melted in the microwave.
1 c. chocolate chips (I prefer semi-sweet), melted

For the crust, preheat oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit and line a 9x13" cake pan with parchment paper so it comes over the sides. Stir together graham cracker crumbs, sugar, chopped pecans, and melted butter...
