I made this creamy, luscious Pumpkin & Chocolate Swirl Cheesecake dessert for my hunnie-bear awhile back for his birthday…and despite my best efforts, he ate most of it by himself!!  

Pumpkin & Chocolate Swirl Cheesecake + Chocolate Chip Cookie Crust

 I did manage to get a couple of nibbles in, not much though!  Do you know what it’s like to get that icy stare and growl, like a dog does, when you try to get near their food or chew bone?  That pretty much explained my situation.  Not pretty.

I mean, I do have to be a guinea pig when I make these desserts and taste-test them for goodness sakes!

  But, I did specifically make it just for him, so I should honor that, right?  ðŸ™‚  Yes. I’m a bad wife. #notsorrythanks

Pumpkin & Chocolate Swirl Cheesecake + Chocolate Chip Cookie Crust

 Pumpkin and chocolate go really good together, so I opted to go with a different route and incorporate a chocolate chip cookie dough crust instead of the norm.  It worked out well, just ask the hubby! 🙂   This is perfect for the holidays for your family get together.  

Don’t forget you’ll need a 9″ springform pan for this.

Prep Time 20 mins
Cook Time 1 hr

Ingredients
  

Pumpkin/Chocolate Cheesecake

  • 16 oz cream cheese at room temperature
  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 6 squares Baker's Unsweetened Chocolate melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin puree

Crust

  • Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough or my Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe 16.5 ounces

Optional

  • Hot Fudge/Whipped Cream/Mini Chocolate Chips

Instructions
 

  • Heat the oven to 300°F.
  • Line the bottom of a 8 or 9-inch spring-form pan with parchment paper. Grease paper with shortening and sides of pan by applying a little bit of shortening to a paper towel or piece of waxed paper. (You can also use a pastry brush to spread a thin coating of softened shortening.) Press the Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough into the bottom of the baking pan. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, using a mixer, beat the cream cheese and sugar together on medium speed until smooth, but don't overbeat.
  • Slowly add the eggs and mix until just incorporated.
  • Divide the batter into two bowls equally. Adding chocolate to one bowl and pumpkin puree to the other. Beat both the batters gently till they are mixed.
  • Pour three-fourths of the pumpkin cheesecake batter over the cookie dough crust.
  • Pour the chocolate cheesecake batter on top of the pumpkin cheesecake batter.
  • Spoon the remaining pumpkin cheesecake batter on top of the chocolate batter.
  • Use a table knife to make a few decorative swirls
  • Set cheesecake in pan inside of a larger baking pan and add an inch of water to the larger pan only. (I line my larger pan with foil.)
  • Bake 1 hour, or until center is set. Turn off oven, prop open the oven door (not all the way, just slightly), and allow the cake to cool 15 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack and cool completely.
  • Pour warmed hot fudge over the edges of the cake and spread with a knife evenly on the sizes or drizzle. Add some whipped cream and more chocolate chips as a garnish and serve.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve or for up to 3 days (or freeze for up to 1 month).

Notes

You can add in some spices to the pumpkin portion if you would like to take it up a notch:
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp. freshly grated nutmeg
1/4 tsp. ground cloves

    Oooooh love the idea of a cookie crust! Yum! One question though….in step 1 the instructions say to press cookie dough into spring form pan and then line with parchment paper?

      Oh Kelly, thank you! I redid that paragraph like 3-4 times before I published and I still got it wrong. Ugh…thank you for pointing that out and it’s fixed now. 😉

    Pumpkin and chocolate are a combination that I find hard to resist at this time of year. I don’t know whether I should thank you or not for adding to the reasons I’ll need to diet big-time come January. In any event, thanks for stopping by our Happy Holidays Link Party – be sure to join us again this week (beginning on Saturday at 7 pm ET) and every week through the holidays.
