I found this recipe online and changed it to my liking. The original recipe was Pumpkin,I'm not a fan of pumpkin,so I changed it to sweet potato.The original recipe added walnuts in the crust,I don't care for walnuts so I omitted them.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375° (convection not recommended). Peel sweet potatoes and cut in half lengthwise. Place in a 9- by 13-inch baking pan and brush with melted butter. Bake until potatoes are soft when pressed, 45 to 55 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare crust. Bake in same oven with potatoes until lightly browned all over, 10 to 12 minutes.

Tips:
- For a creamier cheesecake, use full-fat cream cheese and sour cream. - To prevent the cheesecake from cracking, bake it in a water bath. - Let the cheesecake cool completely before serving. This will help it to set properly. - If you don't have a springform pan, you can use a regular 9-inch pie plate. Just be sure to trim the excess phyllo dough around the edges. - Sweet potatoes can be substituted with other root vegetables such as carrots, parsnips, or turnips. - If you want a sweeter cheesecake, add more sugar to the filling. - For a more decadent cheesecake, top it with whipped cream, chocolate ganache, or fresh fruit. - Marble cheesecake can be made ahead of time. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.Conclusion:
Sweet potato cheesecake is a unique and delicious dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of sweet potatoes and cheesecake is unexpected but delightful. The marble effect adds a touch of elegance, while the pecans add a nice crunch. This cheesecake is sure to impress your guests.
