Very tasty and easier enough for the average cook to make. I served them at my fall potluck and the plate was gone in no time! I did lighten them buy using Neufchatel cheese (reduced fat cream cheese) and I replaced the spices with pumpkin pie spice mix. you should try these, I think you'd like them!

I liked this a lot. I used half flower and half gram cracker crumbs for the bottom, because I like gram cracker crust. I also added finely chopped pecans to the crust mixture. To the filling, I added nutmeg and cloves, to give it more spice flavor. I agree that refrigeration helps set it nicely.

This was a huge hit at our office Thanksgiving potluck! I kept exactly to the recipe, including the topping in the recipe, not in the pic. Unusual for me as I pretty much always add my own twist to any recipe - a reason I don't write/rate many reviews. How can you honestly review another person's recipe if you change it? I made double and cooked in a 9 x 13 foil pan. Delicious, easy to make, perfect for potlucks or family.

Make sure you CHILL them!! I tasted these semi-warm after baking and thought the recipe was a dud. But overnight in the fridge turned them from a D to an A! Very good flavor and texture.

This recipe is delicious!! I'm not a total fan of any kind of nuts, so I did substitute the crust for a simple gram crust however the filling is AMAZING! I followed other reviews and doubled the recipe, putting it in a 9x13 pan and increasing the time, and it worked wonders. Highly recommend this.

I haven't tried it yet and will review after I do so. I have this same recipe from a friend and hers were delicious! I'm sure I will love this just as much when I make it for Thanksgiving this year. I normally make an actual pumpkin cheesecake, but I am not interested in doing that again because it is usually way too thick for a dessert after a large Thanksgiving meal. I like this because it is just like the cheesecake I normally make, just alot thinner. A bit more practical for my family Dinner. I am very excited this year, and again, I will let you all know how this turns out:)

Yummy! I did substitute walnuts for the pecans and I doubled the recipe to make a 9x13 pan of bars! Everyone loved these and have requested them for Thanksgiving dinner instead of the traditional pumpkin pie!
