• ¹⁄₂ cup Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C).

5. Drizzle the caramel sauce over the pumpkin layer. Use a knife to gently swirl the caramel into the pumpkin.
6. Pour the remaining cream cheese mixture over the pumpkin and caramel layers. Use a knife to swirl the layers together.
7. Place the springform pan on a baking sheet and bake for 60 minutes or until the center is set.
8. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool in the oven for 1 hour.
9. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
