  3. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Beat in pumpkin, flour, spice and vanilla. Add eggs and beat on low just until combined.
  4. Pour over crust. Bake for 35 - 45 minutes, or until center is almost set. (doesn't wiggle to much when you shake it) Cool on wire rack for 1 hour. Refrigerate for 3 hours or until chilled. (the longer it's chilled, the better)
  5. While the cheesecake is baking - prep your topping. Pour whipping cream into a small bowl, and beat cream until it begins to thicken. Add powdered sugar and vanilla, then continue beating until stiff peaks form. Spread over chilled cheesecake right before serving. 


OPTIONAL
Sprinkle Pumpkin Pie Spice or cinnamon lightly over the top before serving. 
Or top with sugared pecans:

In a large, non-stick skillet, add sugar. Without stirring, heat over medium-low heat until sugar is melted. Stir in pecans, stirring until coated. Cool on parchment paper and break into pieces once cooled.
