Pecan Pie Cheesecake

Cheesecake again 🙂 Even though, after the „cheesecake queen episode“ (when my husband had a good laugh on my account) I decided not to make a cheesecake in the near future, destiny had other ideas. Kristyn from the LilLuna blog, who was delighted with my cheesecakes, asked me to make my contributor post this time a Thanksgiving version of this great treat. And I had no choice. Even though I thought that would mean a few more days of jokes for my husband, everything in my kitchen was ready for a tasty autumn cheesecake.

Since the Pumpkin version was already on the menu, Pecans were an idea that was simply there for the taking. And so, very quickly, on the table, there was a beautiful Pecan Pie Cheesecake which could easily be number one on your Thanksgiving list of treats. Well, maybe second to my tasty peanut butter cheesecake! 🙂
