Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325°F.
- In large bowl combine softened cream cheese, Splenda, and vanilla. Beat with electric mixer until smooth. Blend in eggs, one at a time.
- Remove one cup of batter and spread into bottom of glass or crockery baking dish which has been sprayed very lightly with non-stick spray.
- Add pumpkin and spices to remaining batter and stir until blended.
- Carefully spread pumpkin layer over first layer.
- Bake in preheated oven 35-45 minutes or until center is almost set.
- Allow to cool, then chill several hours or overnight.
- Serve with whipped cream if desired and wait for compliments.
- I used a 10" by 8" glass baking dish to cook this. Next time I think I would double the recipe and only increase to a 9" by 13" baking dish to make a thicker cheese cake. This would show of the layers better. Some cinnamon dusted on the top would have been a nice touch.
