Chop pecans and evenly sprinkle over the cooled crust.
Mix melted brick, cream cheese, sour cream, sweetener, maple extract, and egg.
Pour filling over the crust and spread, ensuring there are no exposed areas. Top with the remainder of the nuts.
Bake for 20-25 minutes at 350°, or until the middle is set. Let cool then refrigerate, preferably overnight.
