Pumpkin Cheesecake

11.08.2011

I know I know... I have been doing lots of pumpkin posts but I cannot get enough of it!!

So I promise this will be the last pumpkin-y post of the 2011 year.


But  I do have to say this one is my favorite!



Ingredients

Crust:
1 1.3 Cups graham-Cracker crumbs (10 crackers)
1/3 cup sugar
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Filling:
 4- 8 oz bar cream cheese, very soft
1 1/4 c. sugar
3 tablespoons flour
15 oz can pumpkin puree
2 tablespoons pumpkin-pie spice
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 large eggs, room temperature

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350- rack in center
2. Make crust- mix crackers crumbs, sugar, butter until moistened. Press firmly. Bake until golden (10-12 minutes)
3. Create the Filling. Beat cream cheese and sugar (low speed) until smooth.
mix flour, pumpkin puree, pie spice, vanilla and salt. Mix until smooth. Add eggs one at a time.
4. Remove the crust from oven and add filling. 
5. Transfer to oven and reduce oven heat to 300 degrees.
6. Bake 45 minutes. Turn off oven; let cheesecake stay in over for 2 hours more
7. Remove from oven, cool completely. Cover and refrigerate until firm (about 4 hours)


to end this pumpkin- season I thought I would share Caribou's tweet about Pumpkin (b/c I think we have the similar feeling of bittersweet!)




ALSO... I am looking for some Thanksgiving Recipes! My family historically does not cook a whole lot... until I came around SO I am searching for some GREAT side dishes to add to our Thanksgiving meal!
