Ingredients
  • 1.5 cup Graham cracker crumbs
  • 0.5 cup Hazelnuts, finely chopped
  • 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 package Cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup Granulated sugar
  • 1 cup Pumpkin puree
  • 3 large Eggs
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
  • 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
  • 2 tablespoon Whiskey
  • 0.5 cup Heavy cream
  • 0.25 cup Powdered sugar
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C). Grease a 9-inch (23 cm) springform pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, chopped hazelnuts, and melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and granulated sugar until smooth. Add pumpkin puree, eggs, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Mix until well combined.
  4. Pour the batter into the crust in the springform pan. Smooth the top with a spatula.
  5. Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until the center is set and the edges are slightly golden.
  6. Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, run a knife around the edges to loosen the cheesecake from the pan.
  7. Transfer the cheesecake to a wire rack to cool completely. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight.
  8. In a small saucepan, heat the whiskey over medium heat until warm. Add heavy cream and powdered sugar. Stir until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
  9. Serve the cheesecake with the whiskey sauce drizzled on top.
