Ohhhh...this pumpkin chocolate cheesecake pie is so yummy, and actually quite easy to make! It's not really Thanksgiving time in our house until all the delicious baking starts, and this recipe is one of my family's favorite to kick off the holiday season with.
What You'll Need:
1 8 ounce package softened cream cheese
2 cups of pumpkin puree
14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
3 eggs
2 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
3/4 cup finely chopped semisweet chocolate
9 inch pie shell (use your favorite recipe, or do what I do--buy already made pie shells at the grocery store!)
To Make:
Combine cream cheese and milk and beat until smooth. Spread in pie shell and sprinkle with the chocolate pieces.
In another bowl, combine pumpkin puree, spice and eggs. Mix well, and then pour pumpkin mixture on chocolate layer.
Bake at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the middle of the pie comes out clean (that's how my mom always checked on her pies...and it really works)
Enjoy warm!! Don't forget some whipped cream on top.....it's the holidays, time to splurge, right??
