Ingredients
for the crust-
- 3 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 1/2 cup butter melted
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
for the filling-
- 24 oz cream cheese 3 packages, softened to room temperature
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs at room temperature
- 1/2 cup all purpose flour
- 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
for the topping-
- 1 1/2 cups pecan halves lightly toasted
- 2 cups Caramel sauce homemade is best, but a good quality store-bought works too
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325° F.
for the crust-
- In a large bowl, mix together graham cracker crumbs, melted butter and sugar until moist.
- Using the bottom of a measuring cup, press crust into the bottom and half way up the sides of a 9-inch springform pan.
for the filling-
- In a stand mixer, whip cream cheese, and sugar together until smooth. With the mixer on low, stir in vanilla extract and eggs, one at a time. Scrape sides and bottom of the bowl and stir again.
- Whip in flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Scrape sides and stir again if necessary.
- Pour filling into prepared crust and smooth the top.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes until cheesecake is set and hardly jiggles if at all when moved. Remove from oven and cool completely to room temperature.
- Arrange pecan halves over top entire cheesecake in concentric circles. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve.
to serve-
- Run a knife around edges of the cheesecake and remove sides of the springform pan.
- To serve you can either drizzle 1 cup of caramel sauce over the entire cheesecake and cut (with extra sauce to serve along with) or cut first and drizzle individual pieces.
Notes
- Side note: I prefer to warm my caramel sauce to have a delicious contrast of hot and cold for this dessert. Totally optional!
