Ingredients (for about 12 servings):

(For the crust)

(For the frosting)

* 125 g cream cheese

* 1 cups powdered sugar

Grease, or spray with Pam, a spring form pan. In a bowl combine the cookies (finally crushed), and melted butter.

Press the crumbs evenly over the bottom of the spring form pan. Cover and refrigerate while you make the filling.

In a separate bowl stir to combine sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg.
In a bowl of your electric mixer, or with a hand mixer, beat the cream cheese until smooth.

Gradually add the sugar mixture.
Add the eggs, one at a time beating well after each addition
Beat in the vanilla extract and the pumpkin puree. Scrape down the sides of the bowl while mixing.

Pour the filling over the crust and back for 30 min at 170 C and for 20 min at 150 C.

Meanwhile make the frosting my creaming the butter together with the cream cheese. Then add the sugar and vanilla extract and combine.

Once the cheesecake is cooked and cooled down, spread on top the frosting and refrigerate overnight.
