Chocolate Banana Pie

1 9 inch pie crust, unbaked
1/4 cup finely chopped pecans
1 (8 ounce) container cream cheese, softened
1 cup confectioners sugar
1 cup whipping cream
1/2 cup white sugar
2 large bananas, sliced
1 (3 ounce) package chocolate cream pie filling made
   with 1/2 cup less milk than called for
1/2 cup chopped pecans
                   
1. Knead together the pie dough and the 1/4 cup finely
   chopped pecans. Line 9 inch pie pan with the pecan
   dough; bake at 350 degrees F for 15-20 mins. Let cool. 
2. Beat cream cheese and confectioners' sugar until
   smooth, and spread in the pie shell. 
3. Whip the cream. Spread half of the whipped cream over
   the cream cheese in the shell. Lay sliced bananas on top
   of the whipped cream, and cover with the chocolate pie
   filling. Spread the other half of the whipped cream over
   the bananas. Sprinkle with chopped pecans, and
   refrigerate at least 3 hours before serving.
