Yummmmm!
Using this recipe as directed was wonderful; although, it was more of a cheese pie than cheesecake. I tried again, and instead of using all the spices individually I used pumpkin pie spice and made several alterations by using a springform pan with a crust made out of crumbled gingersnaps. I added more to the cream cheese layer and used more pumpkin for a more pumpkin flavor. For an elegant top (can also cover up cracks), I bought a folded frozen pie crust and used tiny leaf shaped cookie cutters to cut out leaves which I brushed with butter and cooked separately. Once the cheesecake was cooked I placed the leaves all over the top and then drizzled with carmel. I left out whipped topping all together. It was very elegant and still tasted just as good. However, with the spring form pan and extra cream cheese layer, I had to cook it much longer.
This just gears me up to pig out on Thanksgiving! lol
it does me too, daryl! =)
we have a cheesecake and a pumpkin pie - if I mixed them together - no? *sigh. I didn't think so. I'll just rotate with a quick bite of one, quick bite of other... :P
lol Good luck with that shortcut Jess and let us know how it works out. It might shave off some cooking time for next year! ;)
I apologize for already screwing up Camille. I accidently posted this under my own name instead of using the teams bon appetit one.
No worries Crystal, and by the way Welcome! I didn't realize this was meant to be a team post. I thought it was your debut post just sharing a favorite pumpkin pie cheesecake recipe. LOL (Rhiannon didn't tell me you were on our culinary team.) I'll be doing a formal welcome post soon once a few other newcomers have had a chance to look around and settle in. :)
oops! I'm sorry about that Camille. I just updated the teams in your post below. :)
How did i over look this recipe?!?! Two of my favorite things all in one, thank the LORD! I kinda like Foxy's suggestions too. Now i know what I'm making for Christmas!!! Thank you Crystal for posting this. Is this your recipe?
