Ingredients

• 25 Whole NABISCO Ginger Snaps, grated
• 0.5 Cups PLANTERS Pecans, ground
• 0.25 Cups butter, melted
• 4 8 Ounces (oz) PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, packaged
• 1 Cups sugar, divided
• 1 Teaspoon (tsp) vanilla
• 4 Whole eggs
• 1 Cups canned pumpkin
• 1 Teaspoon (tsp) cinnamon, ground
• 0.25 Teaspoon (tsp) nutmeg, ground
• 1 Pinch cloves, ground

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C). Mix the ginger snap crumbs, pecans, and melted butter. Press the mixture firmly onto the bottom and 1 inch up the side of a 9-inch springform pan.
2. Beat the cream cheese, 3/4 cup of the sugar, and vanilla with an electric mixer until well blended. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing on low speed after each addition just until blended. Remove 1.5 cups of the batter and place it in a small bowl.
3. Stir the remaining 1/4 cup sugar, pumpkin, and spices into the remaining batter. Spoon half of the pumpkin batter into the crust, then top with spoonfuls of half of the reserved plain batter. Repeat the layers. Cut through the batters with a knife several times for a marble effect.
4. Bake for 55 minutes or until the center is almost set. Cool completely, then refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight. Cut into 16 slices. Store leftover cheesecake in the refrigerator.
