I just saw this on a cooking show on TV this morning. Butter pecan is one of my favorite flavors, and the minute this came on the TV I started scribbling. Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups sugar |
3 eggs |
16 ounces sour cream |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/2 teaspoon butter flavoring |
1 cup pecans, finely chopped and toasted |
Directions:
1. Combine cracker crumbs, 1/3 cup sugar, butter, and half cup pecans, mixing well. 2. Reserve 1/3 cup mixture. 3. Firmly press remaining mixture on bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. 4. Beat cream cheese with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. 5. Gradually add 1 1/2 cups sugar, mixing well. 6. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. 7. Add sour cream and flavorings; mix well. 8. Stir in 1 cup pecans. 9. Spoon into prepared pan, sprinkle with reserved crumb mixture. 10. Bake at 475°F for 10 minutes. 11.
