Default Pecan Cheesecake with Butter Toffee Crust results

I'm sad to report my attempt at this recipe didn't turn out right.
Maybe I undercooked it or possibly didn't mix the ingredients long
enough. My pie pan wasn't quite large enough for the filling either.
Here's what happened.

I used a 9" glass pie pan. The crust filled up the pan about 90% of
the way. It was a little thin at the top, which may have caused the
pecan part of the recipe to stick when it baked. I had to discard a
little of the pecan filling due to lack of room.

Anyway, it looks great, smells great, even tastes great but it was
really thin with too much liquid, not enough gel for the pecan part.
So, it doesn't really "look" great and since I'm serving it as a
birthday dessert, I'd really like it to look perfect. I'm gonna try
another one today, but any ideas as to what I did wrong?

Thanks,
Ginny

PS: I will scale the crust by +50% and use a larger pan. This should
fix some of the problem.
