pumpkin love


When my friend asked me to make a cheesecake for her husband's birthday party this past weekend, I knew I was really going to have my boyfriend do it. I can follow a recipe, but there's just something better about them when he does it. He agreed with the caveat that I bought enough ingredients for two, declaring that if he made one he would want to eat some. He had to twist my arm... He made a caramel swirl cheesecake for my friend's party, but for our cheesecake I had a special request... PUMPKIN cheesecake! I LOVE everything pumpkin and this is obviously the season for it. This cheesecake was everything I wanted... a buttery but slightly crunchy graham cracker crust with just a hint of cinamon, the filling was sweet but not too sweet, pumpkiny but not too pumpkiny with just the right amount of spice and oh so creamy... it was a heavenly way to usher in the season.

love.
