Description

A delightful dessert that combines creamy cheesecake with sweet, nutty pecan pie flavors, perfect for any gathering.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 20 gingersnap cookies
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 16 oz cream cheese (room temperature)
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 tsp allspice
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter (room temperature)
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup light corn syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cups pecans, quartered

Instructions

  1. Lightly spray a 7-inch springform pan with cooking spray.
  2. In a food processor, blend the gingersnap cookies until they form fine crumbs. Add the melted butter and blend until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press the mixture into the bottom of the springform pan, going about halfway up the sides. Place the crust in the freezer for 15 minutes to set.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk the cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add the granulated sugar, allspice, salt, and vanilla extract, and whisk until combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk the heavy cream until stiff peaks form, then gently fold it into the cheesecake mixture. Pour the filling into the prepared crust and smooth the top. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours.
  5. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter and dark brown sugar over medium heat. Stir until melted. Turn off the heat and stir in heavy cream, light corn syrup, and vanilla extract. Mix in quartered pecans and let the topping cool.
  6. Once the cheesecake is set, remove it from the springform pan and pour the cooled pecan pie topping over it. Slice and enjoy.

Notes

For serving, slice the cheesecake into wedges and serve chilled. Garnish with additional pecans or a dollop of whipped cream. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
