  • Step 1Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). In a medium bowl, mix together the crushed gingersnap cookies, pecans, and butter. Press into the bottom, and about 1 inch up the sides of a 9 inch springform pan. Bake crust 10 minutes in the preheated oven. Set aside to cool.
  • Step 2In a medium bowl, mix together the cream cheese, 1/2 cup sugar, and vanilla just until smooth. Mix in eggs one at a time, blending well after each. Set aside 1 cup of the mixture. Blend 1/4 cup sugar, pumpkin, cinnamon, and nutmeg into the remaining mixture.
  • Step 3Spread the pumpkin flavored batter into the crust, and drop the plain batter by spoonfuls onto the top. Swirl with a knife to create a marbled effect.

​MINI CHEESE BALL PUMPKINS

  • 2 ½ teaspoons butter 
  • 3 tablespoons chopped garlic
  • 1 ½ teaspoons white sugar 
  • 2 cups shredded aged Cheddar cheese
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • ¼ cup chopped green onions
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic salt
  • 1 cup finely crushed cheese-flavored crackers (such as Pepperidge Farm® Goldfish)
  • 12 eaches pretzel sticks
  • 1 small bunch fresh parsley, or to taste
Picture
  • Step 1 Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat until sizzling, about 30 seconds. Add garlic and sugar. Cook, stirring constantly, until garlic just starts to brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Immediately remove from heat. Transfer garlic mixture to a bowl. Add Cheddar cheese, cream cheese, green onions, and garlic salt. Beat using an electric mixer on medium speed until creamy. Cover and refrigerate until firm enough to handle, about 30 minutes.
  • Step 2 Shape chilled cheese mixture into golf-ball-sized balls. Roll each ball in crushed crackers and slightly flatten the bottom. Press 1/2 a pretzel stick into the top. Repeat with remaining cheese mixture.
  • Step 3 Spread parsley out on a serving plate and place mini cheeseball pumpkins on top, leaving enough room in between for parsley to show through.
