Method

  • step 1

    Blitz 250g of the biscuits in a food processor with 125ml of the syrup until it resembles fine crumbs. Line a 20cm springform tin with baking parchment, then firmly push the crumbs into the base, transfer to the fridge and chill for 30 mins.

  • step 2

    Beat 100ml of the syrup with the cheese and pumpkin until smooth. Whip 200ml of the cream with 100ml of the syrup to soft peaks. Fold into the soft cheese mixture, then spoon over the base and level the top. Cover and freeze overnight.

  • step 3

    Lightly whip the remaining cream with the remaining syrup and dollop over the cheesecake. Crumble over the remaining biscuits and drizzle over some extra syrup. Leave to rest for 5 mins before serving.

Hi, thanks for your question. It will keep for about 3 days in the fridge. We hope this helps, BBC Good Food Team.

question

Hi, do you have to actually freeze it? I really want to make a pumpkin cheesecake but don't have room in the freezer to freeze it. Thanks!

Hi - Adam from the Good Food cookery team here - Yes if you cut it into portions and freeze this will work perfectly. Thanks

It was too hard and crystallised frozen. Much better thawed!

It tastes good but give lots of time for it to freeze and keep the topping shallow
