  • 1/3 cup butter, melted
For the Cheesecake
  • 8 oz pkg cream cheese
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla

  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp salt
For the Candied Pecans
  • 1 cup pecans, coarsely chopped
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 Tbsp butter
Instructions
  1. Preheat over to 350° and lightly spray an 8 x 8 baking dish with a non stick spray. 

For the Cookie Crust
  1. Place cookies in a large baggie, seal, and using a rolling pin, crush cookies until they resemble graham cracker crumbs. 

  2. In a medium mixing bowl, add cookie crumbs, sugar and melted butter. Stir with a fork until well incorporated then press into an 8 x 8 baking dish. 

For the Cheesecake
  1. In a small mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, egg, sugar and vanilla together until smooth and creamy. 

  2. Refrigerate for 30 - 40 minutes then spoon onto the cookie crust.

For the Pumpkin Pie
  1. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk eggs until light and fluffy. Add pumpkin, milk, brown sugar, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Stir until well incorporated and gently pour onto cream cheese mixture.

  2. Place in the oven and bake for 45-55 minutes or until tooth pick inserted in the center comes out clean. 

  3. Cool and then top with candied pecans.

For the Candied Pecans
  1. Chop pecans and add to a medium saucepan along with the sugar and butter. 

  2. Stirring constantly, heat over medium heat until sugar has melted and turned a delicious brown color, approximately 7-8 minutes. 

  3. Pour onto a buttered cookie sheet, spread out in a single layer and allow to cool. Once cooled, break into small pieces to use to top the cheesecake pumpkin bars.

    After you add the pecans on top can you refrigerate overnight to serve the next day?

    Oh my gosh! As soon as your newest recipe went live I immediately had to try it! Now that the fall season has begun I’m all about everything pumpkin. These super scrumptious cheesecake pumpkin bars were such a delight to make – and better yet, they were fabulous! I’m snacking on a delicious piece right now.

        What’s a good replacement if you can’t find the cookies?
        Thanks

          Hi Sheila, you can use graham cracker crumbs in place of the cookies. Both are delicious. :)
