Print Recipe

A rich and creamy pumpkin cheesecake with a decadent Oreo cookie crust, perfect for fall gatherings or holiday desserts.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 24 Oreo cookies (about 2 cups crumbs)
  • 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 3 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
  2. Crush the Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor. Mix with melted butter until combined.
  3. Press the Oreo mixture into the bottom of the pan to form an even crust. Bake for 10 minutes, then set aside to cool.
  4. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the sugar and mix until combined.
  5. Add the pumpkin puree, vanilla extract, and eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  6. Stir in the cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, salt, and flour. Mix until smooth and fully incorporated.
  7. Pour the cheesecake batter over the cooled Oreo crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
  8. Bake for 60–70 minutes or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly.
  9. Turn off the oven, crack the door open, and let the cheesecake cool inside for 1 hour.
  10. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight before serving.

Notes

  • Use full-fat cream cheese for best texture.
  • Do not overmix to avoid incorporating too much air, which can cause cracking.
  • Serve with whipped cream or caramel sauce for extra indulgence.
  • Cheesecake can be made a day in advance and stored in the fridge.
