Preheat oven to 350F. Finely chop nuts and sugar in processor. Add butter
and blend, using on/off turns, until moist crumbs form. Using plastic wrap

Whisk 1 cup cream, sugar and yolks in heavy medium saucepan. Stir
constantly over medium heat until candy thermometer registers 160 about 6
minutes. Strain into large bowl. Using electric mixer, beat mixture until
cool and slightly thickened, about 8 minutes. Beat in pumpkin, corn syrup,
rum and spices.
Using electric mixer, beat remaining 1 1/2 cups cream in large bowl to
medium-stiff peaks. Fold cream into pumpkin mixture. Transfer filling to
crust. Cover and freeze overnight.
For Topping:
Arrange pecans side by side atop torte, covering completely. Drizzle 1/2
cup caramel sauce over, covering nuts completely (pan will be filled to
top). Freeze until caramel sets, at least 3 hours or overnight.
Run sharp knife around pan sides to loosen torte. Release pan sides. Stir
remaining caramel sauce in heavy small saucepan over medium heat until
warm. Slice torte and serve with sauce.
