MARBLED PUMPKIN CHEESECAKE + WHITE CHOCOLATE FROSTING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• FILLING - Prepare the filling first to chill while crust bakes. In a large bowl, beat together in mixer: cream cheese, sugar, vanilla extract. Then mix the rest together with spoon by hand -- less air after adding eggs means less cracking in your cheesecake later! Add eggs one at a time, mixing after each one.
• Set aside 1/2 of the mixture in a medium bowl. The remaining 1/2 add: pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg, clove - mix together well. Put the plain filling and the pumpkin filling in the fridge while making your crust; this will give it a chance to thicken and will marble nicely later.
• CRUST - In a medium bowl mix together: graham crust, cinnamon, ginger, pumpkin pie spice and butter. Press into the bottom of a spring-form pan. Bake crust in oven at 350 F for 10 minute.
• MARBLE THE CHEESECAKE - Start with the pumpkin filling and add it on top of the crust. Drop spoonfuls of the plain filling throughout. Take a knife and swirl the pumpkin filling to make marble effect. Have fun with it!
• BAKING - (Optional) Put a pan 1/2 filled with water, in the oven on the bottom rack. This will steam and also help the cheesecake not to crack as it bakes. Bake cheesecake in oven at 350 F for 1 hr 15 minute Once done, remove from oven and run a knife around the edge of the pan (this will keep your cheesecake from cracking as it cools). Chill in the fridge.
• FROSTING - Use a chilled bowl & beaters, beat together cream in a mixer, until frothy. Once a little frothy, add gradually: icing sugar, white chocolate pudding powder, cream of tarter. Whip until thick. Spread on chilled cheesecake. Add white chocolate bar squares (optional). Enjoy!
