Pumpkin Cheesecake

Finally made this lovely golden pumpkin cheesecake which I've bookmarked for a very long! I really like the coloured contrast of this pumpkin cheesecake. It looked very outstanding by using Oreo cookies as the base which compliment the golden hue of the cheesecake. Smooth and creamy texture  with hint of pumpkin flavour which was well received by my kids :D
