Pumpkin Cheesecake....delicious!

I hope you all had a Happy Thanksgiving! I have been a terrible and neglectful blogger lately, sorry! I made this delicious cheesecake for Thanksgiving using the Cheesecake Factory's recipe for Pumpkin cheesecake. The picture doesn't do it justice and I forgot to take a picture of it plated, but we ate it up so fast, there wasn't any time. Give it a try, I promise you will be happy you did!
