Cómo preparar Vermont Pumpkin Walnut Cheesecake
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
- Crush 1 ½ cups zweiback cookies into crumbs. In a medium bowl, combine the crumbs with ¼ cup granulated sugar and 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) melted unsalted butter. Mix until well combined.
- Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a lightly buttered 9-inch springform pan. Refrigerate while preparing the filling.
- In a large bowl, beat 16 ounces cream cheese with an electric mixer at medium speed until smooth and creamy.
- Gradually add 1 cup granulated sugar and ½ cup packed light brown sugar, beating until well combined.
- Beat in 4 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. The batter should be light and fluffy.
- Reduce mixer speed to low and stir in 1 (15-ounce) can pumpkin puree, 1 ½ teaspoons pumpkin pie spice, and 1 cup heavy cream. Mix until just combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared crust.
- Bake for 1 hour and 35 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set around the edges but the center is still slightly jiggly.
- **Prepare Walnut Topping:** While the cheesecake bakes, combine 4 tablespoons (2 ounces) unsalted butter, ¼ cup packed light brown sugar, and ½ cup chopped walnuts in a small bowl. Mix until crumbly.
- Remove the cheesecake from the oven. Sprinkle the walnut topping evenly over the top.
- Bake for an additional 10 minutes.
- Let the cheesecake cool completely in the springform pan on a wire rack.
- Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the cheesecake to set completely.
- Garnish with whipped cream and additional walnuts before serving.
