As I've mentioned before, I love pumpkin flavored anything! I had the most amazing pumpkin cheesecake at Plaza III, and i had to try to recreate it! I was unsuccessful in getting their recipe from them (they don't make it there). I looked around online and found this recipe from feasting.in that looked fairly simple, as this was my first cheesecake attempt. It was pretty easy, and was beyond delicious!
