6 tablespoons sugar, divided

2 teaspoons vanilla extract, divided

Preheat oven to 350. Beat cream cheese, 1 egg, 2 T sugar, 1 t vanilla and salt at medium speed with an electric mixer until smooth. Pour cream cheese mixture into pie crust. Sprinkle evenly with chopped pecans.

Whisk together corn syrup and remaining 3 eggs, 4 T sugar and 1 t. vanilla: pour mixture over pecans.
