Description

A glorious tower of treats featuring a creamy pumpkin pie, velvety cinnamon cheesecake, and a tender spice cake—the perfect indulgence for Thanksgiving gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pumpkin pie (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1 cinnamon cheesecake
  • 1 spice cake
  • Whipped cream, for topping
  • Caramel sauce, for drizzling
  • Pecans, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the pumpkin pie according to your favorite recipe or use a store-bought one. Allow it to cool completely, creating a creamy base for your piecaken.
  2. While the pumpkin pie cools, prepare the cinnamon cheesecake. In a bowl, combine cream cheese, sugar, eggs, and a sprinkle of cinnamon. Whip until creamy and smooth; pour this luscious batter into a springform pan and bake until set.
  3. For the spice cake, mix flour, sugar, eggs, and spices (like cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger). Bake until golden and fragrant.
  4. Once all layers are cool, place the pumpkin pie at the base, followed by the creamy cinnamon cheesecake in the middle, and finish off with the tender spice cake on top.
  5. Chill in the refrigerator for a few hours to let all those delicious flavors meld together.
  6. Serve each slice with whipped cream, a drizzling of caramel sauce, and a sprinkle of pecans for that perfect crunch.
