- Here's a cheesecake recipe I intend to try for Thanksgiving dinner. I found it in the 10/21/91 issue of New York Magazine and thought I'd share it with all of you.
- PUMPKIN CHEESECAKE WITH MAPLE/BOURBON SAUCE
- MAPLE - BOURBON SAUCE (recipe below)
- Crust: Lightly butter a 10x2 inch round cake pan. Combine gingersnap crumbs, nut, and butter in a bowl, and mix well. Press mix firmly into prepared pan, and chill for at least 30 min.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Make Filling: In a bowl, beat cream cheese till smooth. Add in sugars and spices, beat till light in texture, 3-4 minutes. Add in pumpkin puree and mix till just blended. Stir in Large eggs one at a time, scraping sides of bowl after each addition. Stir in cream.
- Pour batter into crust, and put cake pan in a roasting pan. Add in warm water to roasting pan halfway up sides of cake pan. Bake in center of oven till cheesecake is hard to touch and slightly puffed, about 50 min.
- Let cheesecake cold on a wire rack for about 45 min. Cover, and chill for at least 4 hrs. When cheesecake is completely chilled, lower pan into a hotwater bath for 2-3 minutes. to loosen the crust. Invert a large, flat plate on top of cheesecake; invert pan, and remove. Put a second plate on bottom of cheesecake, and turn it right side up. Cut with a warm knife, and serve with maple/bourbon sauce.
- Cheesecake will keep for 4-5 days in refrigerator and 2 weeks in the freezer.
