I'm allergic to nuts, so I had to make a few substitutions to the recipe. It still turned out great!

This recipe was a little too complicated for me. I prefer recipes that are simpler and easier to follow.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cheesecake cracked on top. It still tasted good, but it didn't look very pretty.

This cheesecake was a little too dense for my taste. I prefer a lighter and fluffier cheesecake.

I had some trouble getting the cheesecake to set properly. I think I might have overbaked it.

This cheesecake was a little too sweet for my taste, but I still liked it. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

I'm not a huge fan of pumpkin spice, but I still enjoyed this cheesecake. The crust was delicious and the filling was creamy and smooth.

I love that this recipe uses real pumpkin puree instead of canned. It gives the cheesecake a much more authentic flavor.

I followed the recipe exactly and my cheesecake turned out perfectly. It was a little tricky to get the cheesecake out of the pan, but it was worth it.

This is the best pumpkin spice cheesecake I've ever had! The crust is perfectly graham crackery and the filling is smooth and creamy.

I've made this cheesecake twice now and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The pumpkin spice flavor is subtle but still noticeable.

This pumpkin spice cheesecake was a hit at my Thanksgiving gathering! The flavors were perfectly balanced and the texture was creamy and smooth.
