This cheesecake is a great way to use up leftover pumpkin puree. It's also a great dessert for fall gatherings. I highly recommend this recipe!

I'm not a big fan of pumpkin, but I loved this cheesecake. The pecan flavor really balances out the pumpkin flavor, and the crust is perfect. I will definitely be making this again.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cheesecake didn't turn out. The crust was too thick, and the filling was too runny. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This cheesecake was a little too sweet for my taste, but my family loved it. The crust was flaky and buttery, and the filling was rich and creamy. I would recommend using less sugar in the filling next time.
