Ingredients

Scale

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/4 teaspoon allspice
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/3 cup + 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1 (9-inch) store-bought pumpkin pie
  • 12 ounces unsalted butter
  • 5 cups powdered sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
  • 3–4 tablespoons heavy whipping cream (cold)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Prepare the cheesecake layer by mixing softened cream cheese with sugar, flour, vanilla, cinnamon, heavy cream, and eggs until smooth. Pour into a greased cake pan and bake for about 30 minutes. Cool completely.
  2. In another bowl, mix flour with baking powder and spices. Cream softened butter with brown sugar; add oil, vanilla extract, egg, and milk. Gradually combine dry ingredients until just mixed.
  3. Assemble by placing the cooled cheesecake on top of the store-bought pumpkin pie in a sturdy dish. Pour spice cake batter over both layers and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 30-35 minutes until set.
  4. For frosting, beat softened butter with powdered sugar and vanilla until fluffy. Frost once cooled.
