Pumpkin Swirl Cheesecake October 12, 2008
Posted by Teresa in : Dessert , trackbackIt’s Thanksgiving, and no better time to try Pumpkin Swirl Cheesecake! My sister made this for us one year, and we loved it! So, I sought out a recipe and made a batch yesterday. Very creamy, and like my sister, I made cupcake-sized cheesecakes (I’m being lazy, so visit this link for the recipe). As cupcakes, I only cooked them for 20 minutes (but in your oven, they may need 25). As I often do, I altered the recipe and make a dark crust using chocolate cookie wafers, similar to Oreos (in the cookie section of the grocery store), and butter and ground cashews. Yummy! Cashews are one of my favourite nuts, and they worked quite nicely in the crust. I also had to make a little more of the plain cheesecake mix (one more brick of cream cheese) because I didn’t have enough in proportion to the pumpkin flavoured mix. So, when the recipe says to take 1 and a half cups of plain out, perhaps take 2. 
My batch, which used a total of 4 bricks of cream cheese, made 32 cupcakes.
Enjoy, and if I didn’t say it already – Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
