Take a bowl and mix 190gms flour with 1/4th tablespoon salt. Now add the cream cheese to this mixture. Add the chilled butter to this mixture now. Mix this mixture properly until it becomes slightly elastic. If you feel that the dough is dry then add a little cold water. Form this dough into a disk and wrap with plastic wrap. Now you have to refrigerate it for about 1hour.
The next step includes greasing the tart tin. Now you have to roll out the dough on a little floured surface. Set the temperature of your oven to 170C to 180C. Move the rolled dough into a greased tin. Make sure that you remove the extra pie dough above the tin line. Create an even line with the edges of the dough and then crush. Now take a fork and prick the base line of the dough. Now refrigerate it for about 30mins. Take a foil and spread it at the middle of the dough.
Add the pecans to the foil and set the oven to temperature 170C to 180C. Remove the foil with pecans now from the dough and let the dough bake for about 5 to 6mins in the oven. In the mean while take two egg yolks in a bowl and add roasted pecans, unsalted butter, bourbon, dark sugar and salt. Now heat this on a low flame until the butter melts. Turn off your stove and sprinkle the corn flour on this heated mixture.
Put this mixture on the prepared pie crust now and bake it for 20mins to 25mins. Allow the pecan pie to cool after removing it from the oven.
