This was such a great cheesecake. I love cheesecake and got the chance to make this. And this was amazing! I made it for Thanksgiving & my husband said it’s the best one I’ve made so far
This creamy gingerbread cheesecake has a hint of gingerbread spice that pairs perfectly with the sweet and spicy gingersnap crust.
