Helping make pumpkin cheesecake

For Thanksgiving we had to have some pumpkin cheesecake. Had to! It was so simple to make, I had Niki help me with the entire process. First we started with the crust.

She broke them first and stuck them in the bag.

Then she pounded and crushed them to itty bitty pieces.

I melted the butter, poured in the sugar, and mixed it up. She spread it out (at least most of it).

She couldn’t resist licking the sweet buttery spoon.

I threw together the ingredients for the filling and started mixing. She helped by holding the bowl.

She scooped the filling onto the crust and leveled it out.

Baked and chilled. Daddy said it was the best one yet.
