PHILADELPHIA Pumpkin Swirl Cheesecake


🎃 PHILADELPHIA PUMPKIN SWIRL CHEESECAKE

A buttery graham crust, velvety vanilla cheesecake base, and a spiced pumpkin swirl baked to perfection. Ideal for Thanksgiving or any fall dessert table.


🧈 INGREDIENTS

Crust

  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs

  • ¼ cup granulated sugar

  • 6 tablespoons melted butter

  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon (optional)


Cheesecake Filling

  • 3 (8 oz / 225 g) bricks PHILADELPHIA cream cheese, softened

  • 1 cup granulated sugar

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 3 large eggs


Pumpkin Swirl Mixture

  • ¾ cup canned pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling)

  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg

  • ¼ teaspoon ground ginger

  • 2 tablespoons sugar

  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

  • ¼ cup sour cream (or heavy cream)


🧁 INSTRUCTIONS

1. Prepare the Crust

  1. Heat oven to 325°F (160°C).

  2. Combine graham crumbs, sugar, cinnamon, and melted butter.

  3. Press firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.

  4. Bake for 8–10 minutes, then cool slightly.


2. Make the Cheesecake Filling

  1. Beat PHILADELPHIA cream cheese until smooth and fluffy.

  2. Add sugar and vanilla; beat again until creamy.

  3. Add eggs one at a time, mixing on low just until blended—
    do not overmix or the cheesecake can crack later.

Pour most of the batter over the crust, reserving about 1 cup for swirling.


3. Mix the Pumpkin Swirl

In a small bowl, stir together:

  • Pumpkin puree

  • Spices

  • Sugar

  • Flour

  • Sour cream (or heavy cream)

Add the reserved 1 cup of cheesecake batter and mix until smooth.


4. Create the Swirl

  1. Spoon the pumpkin mixture over the plain cheesecake layer in several dollops.

  2. Use a butter knife to gently swirl the pumpkin into the batter in circular motions.
    Don’t over-swirl — you want clean orange and cream patches.


5. Bake the Cheesecake

  • Bake at 325°F (160°C) for 55–70 minutes, or until the center is slightly wobbly but set around the edges.

  • Turn off the oven, crack the door slightly, and let the cheesecake sit inside for 1 hour (prevents cracking).


6. Chill

Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.

This step makes the cheesecake firm, creamy, and perfect for slicing.


🍰 SERVING

Serve chilled with:

  • Whipped cream

  • Caramel drizzle

  • Toasted pecans

  • Cinnamon on top


⭐ TIPS FOR A PERFECT SWIRL CHEESECAKE

  • Always start with softened PHILADELPHIA cream cheese.

  • Use low speed when adding eggs to avoid too much air.

  • Let the cheesecake cool gradually to prevent cracking.

  • Use a water bath for an ultra-smooth, crack-free result (optional).


🎃 VARIATIONS
