Combine cream cheese, whipped topping, and powdered sugar in a bowl; beat with an electric mixer until smooth. Spread mixture along the bottom of a pie plate and refrigerate while you prepare the topping.
Combine brown sugar, cold butter, corn syrup, pecans, vanilla extract, egg, and salt in a saucepan. Bring mixture to a gentle boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, and remove from heat. Allow to cool for 10 minutes, stir, and pour over cream cheese mixture. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.
Serve with apple slices, pretzel crisps or graham crackers
