The story, tips & photos
I’m not the biggest pumpkin pie fan. And I’m not the biggest fan of cheesecake either. What’s wrong with me, right?! My hubby, on the other hand… well, how can I say this… cheesecake and pumpkin pie are the true loves of his life. I mean, he eats this stuff in his sleep. Like, literally. I woke up the other night around midnight to get some water and noticed spoonfuls missing from my Cheesecake Pumpkin Swirl Pie!
So anyway… pumpkins EVERYWHERE, right? Just walking into the grocery store, I felt like I needed to make pumpkin something. And knowing that my husband loves pumpkin pie and cheesecake, I thought, what the hey! Why not combine the two? When you combine cheesecake and pumpkin pie, something magical happens, people. I’m not sure why this combo works, but it just does and I’m liking it!
By the way, do you think I really needed to open the fridge for some water? We have an external water dispenser on the fridge. I opened the fridge because I wanted to sneak in a spoonful too! 😛 That’s how good this stuff turned out to be.
You should have seen the expression on hubby’s face when he tried this pie → pure happiness!
They say you can’t buy happiness. Well, you can buy the ingredients to make yummy Cheesecake Pumpkin Swirl Pie… and that’s pretty much the same thing! 🙂 Once you try it, you’ll be pinning, liking, tweeting and sharing this recipe!
And by the way, where the heck have I been? → Right?!

Leave a commentWe live at a 5300 elevation..do I have to do.anything different?
Can you use full fat cream cheese instead?
Yes! Enjoy 🙂
It says to add pumpkin puree and spice to the remaining batter?? What is the remaining batter? It then says to put remaining 1/4 cup of cheese mixture on top of that so it’s not that. Is the pumpkin puree & spice the 2nd layer?
Hi Nicole! I updated the instructions and they should make more sense now! Enjoy!
I am actually a big fan of pumpkin soup but not pumpkin pie. Your hubby must be such a huge pumpkin fan! I wonder how cheesecake pumpkin pie would taste like? This would go great during Halloween as it literally is pumpkins everywhere by then!
