     Marbled Pumpkin Cheesecake

Category   Breakfast - Brunch
Sub Category   None

Ingredients
1 1/2 cups crushed gingersnap
1/2 cup finely chopped pecans
1/3 cup butter, melted
2 (8 ounce) packages cream
3/4 cup white sugar, divided
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 eggs
1 cup canned pumpkin
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
 
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). In a medium bowl, mix together the crushed gingersnap cookies, pecans, and butter. Press into the bottom, and about 1 inch up the sides of a 9 inch springform pan. Bake crust 10 minutes in the preheated oven. Set aside to cool. 2. In a medium bowl, mix together the cream cheese, 1/2 cup sugar, and vanilla just until smooth. Mix in eggs one at a time, blending well after each. Set aside 1 cup of the mixture. Blend 1/4 cup sugar, pumpkin, cinnamon, and nutmeg into the remaining mixture. 3. Spread the pumpkin flavored batter into the crust, and drop the plain batter by spoonfuls onto the top. Swirl with a knife to create a marbled effect. 4. Bake 55 minutes in the preheated oven, or until filling is set. Run a knife around the edge of the pan. Allow to cool before removing pan rim. Chill for at least 4 hours before serving.
NOTE FROM ANOTHER USER: This was my very first homeade cheesecake... I was surprised at how user-friendly it was. Everyone loved it but I'll share what I think are necessary modifications: -I would do only half gingersnap and then the other half graham cracker (or nilla wafer) for the crust... this keeps it sweet and light without compromising the ginger kick. -I also added about a half teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice. -And as someone suggested... I made the filling first so it could refrigerate while I did the crust. This made the marble effect work... and not "runny" like others have stated.
