For cheesecake layer, combine cream cheese, egg, sugar and vanilla extract in a mixer bowl. Beat until light and very fluffy. Spread over the bottom of the pie shell.

For pecan pie layer, spread pecans gently on top of the cream cheese mixture. Mix the 2 slightly beaten eggs, sugar, light and dark corn syrup and vanilla extract together; be sure to blend well. Carefully spoon the mixture over the pecans. Bake for 40 to 55 minutes until just set, or until an inserted knife comes out clean. Let cool and cut.
