My lovely daughter-in-law baked this awesome Double Layer Pumpkin Cheesecake for our Thanksgiving dinner.
Ingredients:
2 8oz packages cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 eggs
1 9inch prepared graham cracker crust
1/2 cup pumpkin puree
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 pinch ground cloves
1 pinch ground nutmet
1/2 cup frozen whipped topping, thawed
Directions:
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. In a large bowl, combine cream cheese, sugar and vanilla. Beat until smooth. Blend in eggs one at a time. Remove 1 cup of batter and spread remaining batter into bottom of crust; set aside. Add pumpkin, cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg to the remaining batter and stir gently until well blended. Carefully spread over the batter in the crust. Bake in preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until center is almost set. Allow to cool, then refrigerate for 3 hours or overnight. Serve with a spoonful of whipped topping.
Thank you, Whitney!
