10 Must-Have Thanksgiving Desserts

2. Pumpkin Pecan Cheesecake

This recipe beautifully combines Thanksgiving favorites pumpkin pie, pecan pie, and cheesecake to make it a new favorite at any table. Start the recipe by combining ½ cup chopped pecans with ¼ cup packed brown sugar and two tablespoons butter. Cover the mixture and store it in the refrigerator for later. For the cheesecake, beat together 8 ounces of cream cheese, ⅓ cup packed brown sugar, 2 eggs, and ¾ cup pumpkin butter. Pour the cheesecake batter in a prepared graham cracker crust and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 40 minutes.

Sprinkle the pecan mixture over the cheesecake and bake for another 5 minutes. Once baked, let the dessert cool for at least 4 hours before serving.
