Recipe Notes
You should make this dessert ahead of time & serve it cold. I usually make this the night before a holiday like Thanksgiving.
If you’d like to add variations to this recipe, then you can swap the crust with a low carb cake mix. You’d simply prepare the cake mix according to the package directions, then top it with the cheesecake and pumpkin pie layers.
I cooked the cheesecake layer for a few minutes before adding the pumpkin pie layer. This helped me to get a layered look. You can skip this step if you wish.
