  • 1/2 Cup of finely chopped pecans
  • 1/3 Cup of butter, melted
  • 2 (8 ounce) packages Cream Cheese, softened
  • 1/2 Cup white sugar
  • 1/4 Cup white sugar
  • 1 Teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 Eggs
  • 1 Cup of canned Pumpkin
  • 3/4 Teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 Teaspoon ground nutmeg

Directions

Preheat oven to 350° degrees F.  In a medium bowl, mix together the crushed gingersnap cookies, pecans, and butter.  Press into the bottom, and about 1 inch up the sides of a 9 inch springform pan.  Bake crust 8-10 minutes in the preheated oven.  Set aside to cool.

In a medium bowl, blend together the cream cheese, 1/2 cup sugar and vanilla extract and mix until smooth.  Mix in eggs one at a time, blending well after each addition.  Set aside 1 cup of the batter.  Blend 1/4 cup sugar, pumpkin, cinnamon, and nutmeg into the remaining mixture.  Spread the pumpkin flavored batter into the crust, and drop the plain batter by spoonfuls onto the top.  Swirl with a knife to create a marbled effect.

Bake 55 minutes in the preheated oven, or until filling is set.  Remove from oven and run a knife around the edge of the pan.  Allow to cool before removing pan rim.  Chill for at least 3-4 hours or until firm
