Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350 F.
- Crush your graham crackers and mix with the butter and 1 tbsp of sugar. Press into springform pan and bake for 5 min. Set aside.
- To make cheesecake, cream the cheese, sugar and vanilla until smooth.
- Then add eggs, pumpkin and the spices until creamy.
- Pour into crust and bake for about 60 min.
- Allow cheesecake to come to room temperature before placing into refrigerator.

I make my own whipped cream, I don’t like the pre-packaged stuff. I use a small carton of heavy whipping cream and add a tsp of confectioners sugar and let my mixer beat until stiff. Then you can put into a piping bag with a fancy tip and go to town!
