A fellow NC BYC member posted this and I figured I would share. I have given her credit for the recipe since she was the one who posted it originally on BYC.

Normal cheesecake alone is amazing, but combined with pumpkin?! Dreamy! Totally going to make this for Thanksgiving, thank you!

I think I'll try this with a change....I'll make my own graham cracker crust with crushed pecans in it

Now that sounds like it would be good.

A caramel pecan layer below the cheesecake layer would also probably be good...

This is definitely on my "To Do" List this weekend. Thanks marlowmanor for posting this recipe. I made DH a Spice cake last weekend (he ate it all but a small sliver) and he's begging for another. I'll just make two types.

Definitely will do the Graham Cracker Crust with this.

Just made this cheesecake. I made two actually. I used crushed pecans in the crust for the second one and then piped whipped cream on the top and drizzled caramel sauce over that. Sprinkled with crushed toasted pecans. Both of them were delicious!

That would make it gluten free if you just used caramel pecans as the crust. I am not a baker, do you think it would work?
