  • Use high-quality cream cheese that is softened to room temperature. This will ensure a smooth and creamy filling.
  • Beat the cream cheese and sugar together until light and fluffy. Gradually add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  • Stir in the pumpkin puree, spices, and vanilla extract. Pour the filling over the prepared crust.
  • Bake the cheesecake at 350°F for 45-50 minutes, or until the center is set. Let the cheesecake cool completely before refrigerating for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  • When ready to serve, top the cheesecake with whipped cream, caramel sauce, or fresh berries. Enjoy!
