Pumpkin Pie Cheesecake

I don't use pumpkin very often and it's been ages since I made this cheesecake but I was inspired by the gingersnap cookies I made back in September to grind some up and use them as a base.

Doesn't this look amazingly good. After a big meal I like a dessert that's creamy and slides down well. Of course I also want it to be sweet and yummy and this does all of that very nicely indeed!

Thank you. I'm not a big pumpkin fan but it was tasty. :)

I love the look of this and that salted caramel sauce looks so delicious. What a pretty looking dessert. xx http://hotlyspiced.com

Thank you. I was a bit shaky with the initial piping of the caramel lattice but I got better. The gingersnap crumb outline...got to work on it too. :)

What a great way to use up the ginger cookies (I'm thinking next time if I happen to over bake them!). And who doesn't love salted caramel? My friend Barb also made a salted caramel sauce on her blog today!

I saw the salted caramel brownies she made. They looked SO rich and decadent. :)

I agree.

Wow! I'm amazed and impressed! It looks so perfect I would believe if you said you have bought it from a good confectioner's shop. You have decorated it like a professional baker. Congratulations!
This looks also quite original and very appetising. Sissi (http://www.withaglass.com)

Thank you but there are SO many mistakes on the cheesecake that I'm kind of embarrassed. And if you knew what happened to the cheesecake itself when I took it out of the springform pan much too early ... well, I can send you the pictures privately if you want to see them. :)

Haha! If you knew how my food looks like... HAve you ever wondered why I almost never post whole cakes? ;-) Sissi (http://www.withaglass.com)

I was SO bummed at cracking the cheesecake before even getting it out of the pan especially as it looked perfect when done. No cracks at all when I took it out of the oven for a change. And as I'm too lazy to do a waterbath, that's saying something.

Now I know your little secret as well. :)
