This is an amazing cheesecake. I took it to a bridal party and everybody loved it! There wasn't a piece left!

I made this recipe using low-fat cream cheese and egg beaters and no one at the restaurant where I work could tell it was a "light" version. It is very good and not too sweet, just the right amount of sweetness!

I made this cheesecake and it was a bit too sweet for me, but my co-workers liked it. I was also disappointed that my crust got soggy after I baked it with the filling. I did; however, share the gingersnap crust idea with my sister's friend who had used grahm crakcers with her's originally and she loved the new alternative.

I love this recipe and make it almost every thanksgiving. I will admit i get mixed reviews on the crust. I think you either love it or hate it. I also chill the batter before putting in pan.

This is a great recipe! I tweaked it a bit as follows: for the crust I used one box of Anna's Ginger Thins and one sleeve of cinnamon graham crackers for a 9 1/2" springform pan.I used a full can of pumpkin mix, 4 eggs as others have suggested, 3 pkgs cream cheese and upped the spices by about 50%. This makes for a little higher cheesecake (2 1/2" or so).The cooking (55 min.) and cooling instructions others have provided are right on the money-no cracking. A keeper!

Delicious! I made this recipe for the first time Christmas Eve. Followed the instructions to a T, except I used a little more butter for mixing the crust (whole stick). I used pure pumpkin and added the spices. I was a little worried about the gingersnap crust, thought it might be a little strong, but the baking process really tones down the flavor. The crust is a really nice complement to the creamy pumpkin flavor. Will make again!

This was geat- will be using this for a long time to come. I didn't have pecans for the crust, so just used an equal amount of gingersnap crumbs. I also doubled the spice amount, and only used pumpkin pie spice. Great recipe- I have had many compliments.

This is a great recipe! I gave it 4 stars only because you have to double the cream cheese to get the height.

I made this for Thanksgiving and it was fantastic. The gingersnap crust is to die for. I did not change a thing except for the water bath. I will be making this for Christmas and will take Kathryn's advice and bake at 325 for 70 min. in the water bath. I just wrap foil under my springform pan so water will not get in. I may also add one more 8 oz cream cheese. GREAT CHEESECAKE!!

This recipe was so easy! The texture of the cheesecake was nice and dense, it was so delicious! Next time I will only reserve 1/2 cup or so of the mixture to make the "swirly" part. A cup seemed to be a little too much. I added a little more spice than called for in the recipe, but i just eyed it not any specific measurement.

I've made this cheesecake twice now. Once with the pecans in the crust and once without. I really liked it with no pecans. When that are added to the crust they overpower the taster of the gingersnaps. Love the cheesecake but better without the pecans.

Nice mix between cheesecake and pumpkin pie. I did make some changes: I used vanilla wafers instead of gingersnap cookies. I also added 2 tbsp of brown sugar, 1 tsp of vanilla butter nut extract, added a 1/2 cup of heavy cream, 1/2 cup of flour, and omitted the pecans.

so festive! I made this for our Thanksgiving dessert and it was quite a hit. turned out very well with only 1 small crack, which I think happened because I didn't run a knife around the edge before I shut the oven off and let it cool for an hour. lesson learned. next time I will consider holding back less batter for the "plain" swirling part, the whole cup of batter was too much on top of mine (I used an 8.5" springform pan) and I didn't quite get the marbled top I wanted. still tasted great. I'd also recommend refrigerating the separate layers for the cleanest marbling effect. thanks for sharing!

Tasted too much like pumpkin pie and not enough like cheesecake. I'll go back to the old recipe I used to use.

For all who read reviews and tweak! This recipe is amazing! I made it for Thanksgiving to take to the neighbors and everyone raved! I adjusted the recipe to serve 18 and it filled out my springform perfectly. Eggs and cream cheese were brought to room temp before I started. I followed the recipe as changed with the new serving size exactly. Except: Added 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice to the pumpkin filling. Note - If using your mixer use the paddle attachment not the wire wisk. Also, still only need about 3/4 C filling to marble in. Baked at 325 for 70 minutes, with a pan of water on the lower rack - couldn't do a water bath my springform pan leaks. When the time was up, I turned the oven off and opened the door. Left in the oven cooling for 1 hr. Then moved to the counter to cool another 1 1/2 hrs before moving the fridge. ABSOLUTELY NO CRACKS! Crust and filling was perfect! Great recipe, has been requested for Christmas as well.
