Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking the crust.

In a medium bowl, combine chocolate wafer crumbs with melted butter, mixing until fully incorporated. Transfer this mixture into a greased 9-inch fluted tart pan, pressing firmly to create an even layer. Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, until firm and slightly golden. Once baked, let it cool on a wire rack.

In a saucepan over low heat, melt together the caramels and heavy whipping cream, stirring continuously until the mixture is smooth and creamy without any lumps. When ready, fold in the chopped pecans for an added crunch. Pour this luscious filling into the cooled crust, ensuring an even distribution of textures. Finally, sprinkle the chopped Snickers evenly on top for a sweet boost.

In a small saucepan, heat the remaining heavy whipping cream until it just begins to boil. Remove from heat and pour it over the semisweet chocolate chips in a mixing bowl. Whisk together until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is silky smooth. Gently pour this delectable topping over the pie, spreading it evenly for maximum coverage, and prepare to chill.

Refrigerate the assembled Fudgy Turtle Pie for at least 1 hour, allowing it to set beautifully.

Once chilled, remove the pie from the refrigerator and slice it carefully using a sharp, warm knife for clean edges. Drizzle with extra caramel if desired and sprinkle on additional Snickers pieces for a gorgeous presentation. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
