Directions:Preheat the oven to 350º. Line an 8 inch baking dish with foil. Spray with Pam. Place the cookies in a food processor and process until you have fine crumbs. Add in the butter and pulse until combined. Pour out into the prepared dish and pat into the bottom of the dish with your hands. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes. Set aside to cool. Beat the cream cheese and the sugar in a mixer on medium speed until smooth and fluffy - about 2 minutes. Beat in the pumpkin. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, scraping down the sides after each addition. Beat in the vanilla, flour, pumpkin pie spice and salt just until combined. Pour the cream cheese mixture over the crust. Place the baking dish on top of a rimmed baking sheet. Place in the oven. Pour water onto the baking sheet until it is nearly filled. Bake until the cheesecake is set at the edges and barely jiggles at the center, about 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool completely. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until firmed, at least 3 hours. |
