Pumpkin Cheesecake

This is the first cheesecake I have ever made. I must say I think it turned out wonderfully!

Crust:

• 1 1/2 c. Graham cracker, crumbled
• 5 T. Butter, melted
• 1 T. Sugar
• A dash of cinnamon 

Filling:

• 3- 8oz.pkgs. Cream cheese, softened
• 1 c. Sugar
• 1 t. Vanilla
• 1 c. Canned pumpkin
• 3 Eggs
• 1/2 t. Cinnamon
• 1/4 t. Nutmeg
• 1/4 t. Allspice

Mix crust ingredients together, just till coated and crumbly. Press onto the bottom and up the sides of an 8" spring form pan. Bake for 5 min. at 350. Set aside.

Combine cheese, sugar and vanilla in large bowl, mix until smooth with an electric mixer. Add pumpkin, eggs, and spices, beat till smooth and creamy. Pour into the crust. Bake for 60-70 min. or till the top turns a bit darker. Remove from oven and let sit for 15 mins. Put in the fridge for at least 4 hrs to chill. Remove pan sides and enjoy!
