PUMPKIN CHEESECAKE TARTS WITH GINGERSNAP CRUST
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. To make the crust, combine the gingersnap crumbs with the melted butter and toss together until the mixture holds together when pressed. Add an additional tablespoon of melted butter if necessary. Pat evenly over the bottom and halfway up the sides of 8 (4 1/2-inch) tartlet pans. Bake about 7 minutes, or until set. Remove from oven.
- Meanwhile, make the filling. Put the grated ginger in a fine sieve set over a small bowl and press against it to extract the juice. Set aside the ginger juice and discard the pulp. In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine the cream cheese, brown sugar, spices and salt. Beat until creamy and well-combined. Beat in the ginger juice and the pumpkin puree. Add the eggs one at a time, beating after each until blended but being careful not to overbeat. Pour the filling into the tartlet pans and bake 25 to 35 minutes, or until the center is just firm to the touch. Cool to room temperature then chill at least 2 hours or overnight before serving.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Place an ovenproof glass pie plate in oven, 1/2 to 3/4 with water
- Prepare crust: by combining crust ingredients in a small bowl. Mix to combine with a fork.
- For 9" tart: Add the graham crumbs into a 9" tart pan. Spread along the bottom and at least halfway up the sides, taking care to even out the crust and tamp down, I used the bottom of a metal measuring cup.
- For mini tarts: Add one rounded tablespoon of moist crust crumbs into each mini cheesecake space. Use a small bottle (such as a spice bottle, or a shot glass) to press down the crumbs, to form a crust.
- Prepare the filling: Beat the cream cheese until very smooth. Add pumpkin, eggs, sour cream, sugar and spices. Blend until well combined. Add flour and vanilla, and beat until well combined and no lumps.
- Pour or spoon filling into prepared crusts. / Divide batter among the muffin tins.
- TART, bake for 25-30 minutes. Remove from oven and cool.
- MINI CHEESECAKES, bake in pre-heated oven for 17- 20 minutes. Remove from oven and cool.
- When completely cooled, cover lightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours minimum.
- Serving options: Top with a dollop of whipped cream or if using a topping (you can pipe it on with a frosting bag & tip) , Cool Whip works best and holds up for hours, even overnite. DELISH!
Tips:
- Prepare the Crust: Use a combination of graham cracker crumbs and melted butter to create a stable and flavorful crust. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the tart pan or muffin tins.
- Make the Pumpkin Filling: Ensure the cream cheese is at room temperature to achieve a smooth and creamy filling. Mix the cream cheese, sugar, eggs, pumpkin puree, and spices until well combined.
- Bake the Tart or Mini Bites: Preheat the oven to the specified temperature before baking the tart or mini bites. Bake until the center is set and the edges are golden brown.
- Cool and Chill: Allow the tart or mini bites to cool completely before refrigerating. This helps the filling to firm up and develop its full flavor.
- Garnish Before Serving: Before serving, top the tart or mini bites with whipped cream, pumpkin seeds, or a sprinkle of cinnamon for an extra touch of elegance.
