Prep Time15 Minutes

Cook Time45 Minutes
Ingredients
2 Essential Everyday Graham Cracker Pie Crusts
4 tbsp Essential Everyday unsalted butter, melted
1 ½ lbs (3 packages) Essential Everyday cream cheese, at room temperature
1 ½ cups Essential Everyday sugar
6 eggs
2 tsp Essential Everyday vanilla extract
2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1 15 oz can Essential Everyday pumpkin puree
For serving: Essential Everyday whipped topping
Directions
- Grease a 9x13” baking dish and line with parchment paper. Preheat oven to 325F.
- Remove the pie crusts from packaging and transfer to a bowl. Using your hands, crumble up into fine crumbs. Stir in melted butter until well combined, then transfer to baking dish and press firmly into the pan in an even layer.
- Add cream cheese and sugar to a food processor and process until smooth (1-2 minutes). Slowly add in the eggs, scraping down the sides as needed, then add in the vanilla extract. Optional: at this point, remove ~½ cup of the cheesecake filling and set aside if you want to make the swirl effect.
- Add in the pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice and continue blending until smooth. Pour on top of pie crust.
- Using a spoon, dollop the remaining regular cheesecake filling over the top, then use a toothpick or a knife to swirl together.
- Bake for 45 minutes, or until the sides are set and the center is just slightly jiggly.
- Remove from oven and let cool at room temperature, then refrigerate for 2+ hours to chill completely before serving.
