I started with the pie crust I'm in love with making now. I gather my mise en place (because I'm "particular" like that).
First, a layer of cheesecake batter...

Protect the crust from over-browning by covering it with foil.
Finished off with pecan streusel, FANTASTIC!

cassie boo; I am going to make this for thanksgiving just for you. I needed something and since I cant come to your house to eat this yummy pie i have to try to make it. I will totally be calling you the night I make it.
Mmmmmmmm, this looks so good. Much creamier than the other two-fer pies I've seen. YUM.
That looks AWESOME! I am a lover of all things pumpkin and all things cheesecake. I will definitely make this one.
That streusel topping alone looks soooooooo good.
It's no secret that I love pumpkin pie, and then you decided to throw that streusel on there. It looks amazing, but you already knew that :)
I didn't see anywhere in the recipe list how many Pecans...I am def making this for Thanksgiving! I just need to be sure I have all of the right amounts of the ingredients. Thanks!!
Looks so delicious, how many pecans go in the streusel?
yummy I m drooling. Looks so creamy delicious. You made me crave it.
Wow! That looked absolutly delicious! How would you compare it to regular pumpkin pie or a pumpkin cheesecake?
YES! How many pecans? You don't say...
YUM - that looks fabulous! So festive!
This pie looks just delectable!
I popped in via a search for Eat a Cranberry Day. So glad I did everything looks so yummy!
Oh my gosh that looks insanely good. YUM.
the topping on your pie looks so delicious!! Perfect for the holidays!
Its look really really good!!Nice work!!mmmm=)
Is canned pumpkin the same as pureed fresh pumpkin? I'm pretty sure we don't do canned pumpkin in NZ
The streusal topping looks so good! I like how you made layers so cream cheese and pumpkin instead of combining themn both.
oh my god! at the end i saw that it was topped with pecan streusel and i saw that i have to make it! is the pumpkin and cream cheese combination good? it sure looks amazing.
That looks PERFECT. The pumpkin, the streusel... ahhh!!! I want one pls =(
Wow this looks amazing!! A great twist on a traditional dessert!! I was going to make Dorie's Thanksgiving Twofer pie but now I'm not sure......mmmmm....cheesecake!!! ;)
Yommy! Cheesecake pies combine the best of both worlds, and it works especially well with pumpkin because the textures are similar.
Oh YUMMO that looks so tasty :)
Thanks! I hope I get a call back from them... I thought you were a cake decorator at La Chocolatier...
I actually convinced my dad, who usually HAS to have his plain old pumpkin pie at Thnakgiving, to try this instead! It loos so good.
OMG we just had this tonight for dessert for Thanksgiving and it was DELICIOUS! I wasn't even looking for a Thanksgiving recipe when I came across your blog and thought I just had to make it! I also made my own pie crust for the first time and it came out great! I am NEVER buying the Pillsbury package ever again. Thanks so much for sharing this wonderful recipe. My family loved it! Happy Thanksgiving!
I made this for Thanksgiving dessert and it was fabulous! Seriously, great recipe!
Positively the best pie I have ever had! Made it for Thanksgiving along with my traditional apple and pecan pies. It was gone in a flash! Everyone wanted seconds. What a great change from the standard plain pumpkin pie. Thank you for putting it on your site!
