This pumpkin cheesecake brings together the richness of a classic New York–style cheesecake and the warmth of fall spices. The pumpkin purée folds into the batter without thinning it, creating a steady, custard-like texture that sets beautifully in a water bath. The crust supports every slice cleanly, making this dessert ideal for celebrations and cosy nights alike.
