Yield Makes 12 to 16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

Crust
9 whole graham crackers (about 4 ounces), broken
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter, melted
Filling
4 8-ounce packages cream cheese, room temperature
1 1/2 cups sugar
3 large eggs
1 15-ounce can pure pumpkin
1 cup whipping cream
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

Steps:

  • For crust:
  • Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 350°F. Wrap double layer of heavy-duty foil around outside of 10-inch-diameter springform pan. Combine graham crackers, sugar, and cinnamon in processor. Blend until graham crackers are very finely ground. Drizzle butter over. Using on/off turns, blend until crumbs begin to stick together. Press crumbs onto bottom (not sides) of springform pan. Bake until crust is slightly golden, about 10 minutes. Transfer to rack and cool while preparing filling. Maintain oven temperature.
  • For filling:
  • Using electric mixer, beat cream cheese and sugar in large bowl until smooth and fluffy. Beat in eggs 1 at a time. Add pumpkin and remaining 7 ingredients. Beat just until blended. Pour filling into prepared crust. Place springform pan in large roasting pan. Add enough water to come halfway up sides of springform pan.
  • Bake cheesecake until slightly puffed and softly set and top is golden, about 1 1/2 hours. Transfer springform pan to rack and cool. Cover and refrigerate cake overnight.
  • Using knife, cut around sides of pan to loosen cake. Release pan sides. Cut cheesecake into wedges and serve.

The cheesecake was a little too dense for my taste, but the flavor was still very good.

I had some trouble getting the cheesecake out of the springform pan. I think I should have let it cool completely before trying to remove it.

This cheesecake was a little too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. I would recommend using less sugar in the filling if you don't like your desserts too sweet.

Overall, I thought this cheesecake was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

This cheesecake was a bit of a disappointment. The pumpkin flavor was barely noticeable and the cheesecake was not very creamy.
