Number Of Ingredients 18

1 c finely crushed gingersnap cookies (30 cookies)
1/2 c butter, melted
1 c macadamia nuts, coarsely chopped
2 lb sweet potatoes
3 pkg (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
2 Tbsp butter, softened
3/4 c white sugar
1/4 c brown sugar
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
2 tsp vanilla extract
1/3 c sour cream
1/4 c heavy cream
3 eggs
1/2 pkg (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
7 oz marshmallow fluff
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 Tbsp all purpose flour

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Cut potatoes in half and place cut side down in a baking dish. Bake until a knife inserted in center goes through easily, about 1 hour. Cool, peel and puree. Combine gingersnap cookies, melted butter and nuts. Press into the bottom of a 9 ½ inch or 10 inch springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes.
  • 2. In a large mixing bowl, beat 3 packages cream cheese and butter until light and fluffy. Add sugars, sweet potato puree, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla, sour cream and heavy cream. Beat until smooth. Add in 3 eggs, one at a time, blending well after each addition. Pour filling into prepared crust.
  • 3. In another mixing bowl, combine 1/2 package cream cheese, marshmallow fluff, vanilla extract, 1 egg and flour, until well mixed.
  • 4. Add drops of the marshmallow mixture on top of the cheesecake and swirl gently with a butter knife.
  • 5. Fill a pie plate with water and place on the bottom oven rack. Place the cheesecake on the middle rack. Bake for about 1 hour, 10 minutes, or until the center is almost firm. Turn off oven and let cake cool with the door open.

I had some trouble with the crust, but the cheesecake itself was delicious. The sweet potato and marshmallow swirl was a unique and tasty combination. I would definitely make this again, but I would try a different crust recipe.

This cheesecake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. The sweet potato and marshmallow swirl was a nice touch. I would definitely make this again, but I would use less sugar next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the cheesecake turned out great! The only thing I would change is to add a little more salt to the crust. Other than that, this is a perfect recipe.
