    List of Ingredients




    Makes 1 10" cheesecake

    Cheesecake ingredients:
    1 1/2 pounds (3 8-ounce packages) cream cheese
    1 cup light brown sugar
    1/4 cup sour cream
    5 eggs
    1 15-ounce can pumpkin
    1 tablespoon cornstarch
    1/2 tablespoon cinnamon
    1/2 teaspoon ginger
    1/2 teaspoon cloves
    1 tablespoon dark rum

    Topping ingredients:
    1/2 cup pecans
    1/3 cup brown sugar
    1 1/2 ounces butter

    Whipped cream if desired to top

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter or grease with Crisco a 10" springform pan. Line it with greased baking parchment paper.

    Mix the cheesecake ingredients in the order given and beat until smooth. Pour into the prepared pan. Bake about 1 hour, or until almost set.

    Combine the topping ingredients and process in a Cuisinart until blended. Spread on top of cheesecake and bake an additional 20 minutes until the topping is bubbly brown.

    Turn the oven off and leave the cake in it for about an hour. Cool on a table until it is room temperature, then chill thoroughly in the refrigerator. Remove from pan when ready to serve, slice and top with whipped cream.

    The ingredients may be doubled to make two cakes.
