LAYERED CREAM CHEESE PUMPKIN PIE
Number Of Ingredients 14
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- To make the cheesecake filling: Combine the room-temperature cream cheese and sugar, beating slowly until the mixture is fairly smooth. It may appear grainy, or a few lumps may remain; that's OK.
- Stir in the egg and vanilla
- Spoon the filling into the pie crust.
- To make the pumpkin filling: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, salt, and spices.
- Add the pumpkin, cream or evaporated milk, and eggs, and whisk gently until smooth. (You don't want to beat a lot of air into this mixture; just be sure it's thoroughly combined.)
- Gently spoon the pumpkin filling atop the cheesecake layer, filling within 1/4" of the top of the crust. Note: Do this carefully at first, so as to not disturb the cheesecake layer; once you've covered the cheesecake, you can be less careful
- Bake the pie for 15 minutes.
- Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F, and continue to bake for 40 to 45 minutes, covering the edges of the pie with a crust shield or aluminum foil if they seem to be browning too quickly. The pie is done when it looks set, but still wobbles a bit in the center when you jiggle it. If you have a digital thermometer, the pie will register 165°F at its center when it's done.
- Remove the pie from the oven, allow it to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate it until serving time. Serve with lightly sweetened whipped cream flavored with a pinch of ginger and teaspoon of vanilla.
