A wonderful alternative to pumpkin pie. It tastes like the lightest pumpkin pie ever!!! I found the recipe in the Houston Chronicle. I'm not much on pumpkin pie but this is the best!

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cheesecake didn't turn out. The mousse was too runny and the crust was too hard.

This cheesecake was a bit too dense for my taste, but the flavor was good.

This cheesecake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but my family loved it. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar in the mousse next time.

I'm not a big fan of pumpkin, but I really enjoyed this cheesecake. The mousse was so smooth and creamy, and the crust was the perfect balance of sweet and tart.

I followed the recipe exactly and my cheesecake turned out great! The only thing I would change is to use a graham cracker crust instead of a cookie crust.

This pumpkin mousse cheesecake was a hit at my Thanksgiving dinner! The flavors were perfectly balanced and the texture was light and airy. I will definitely be making this again.
