pumpkin cheesecake disaster (but delicious)

So I attempted to bake a pumpkin cheesecake (in my new to me fancy oven) for a holiday party. Let's just say it didn't go very well, to say the least.  My new range is electric viking (never used electric before). The oven has settings i have never used such as convection oven, bake, oven, convection bake, and another setting. *side note I didn't buy this range it came with the new house i just purchased. Well lets just say I used the convection bake option and it didn't work out well for me. :my_huh:  I wish I had pictures, but sadly i do not. Inside of the cheesecake was delicious, the crust and top were burnt to a crisp and uneatable. So my mom being the master baker she is took the recipe and made it correctly and it was  delicious. So, i wanted to share it with all of you.

 

 

Chocolate pumpkin cheesecake

3 8 oz cream cheese, softened

1 Oz can pumpkin puree

4 large eggs

3/4 c sugar

1/2 c light brown sugar

1/4 c sour cream

2 tsp van extract

2 tbsp all purpose flour

1 tsp pumpkin pie spice

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1/4 tsp kosher salt

Crust

24 Oreo, whole

6 tbsp melted butter

Directions

preheat 350* don't use convection bake option lol

beat cream cheese until smooth, add pumpkin puree, eggs, sugars, sour cream, vanilla, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Beat until combined and no lumps. set aside

Crust crush Oreo until fine crumbs form, add melted butter and coat Oreo crumbs.

spray 9in spring form pan with cooking spray and press Oreo mixture to the bottom of the pan.

pour cheesecake mixture on top of Oreo crust.

Bake for 1 hour.

once baking is done release pan and let cool for 1 hour, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours

 

Optional but delicious

drizzle chocolate and caramel on top and serve with whipped cream you won't be sorry 

 

PS my mom said next time she will bake this using a water bath but i don't know to do that.  I'm just a girl who reads recipes tries them and usually burns it. Then gives mom said recipe and she makes them better. But i am determined to learn how to bake. :pb_lol:

I bet this makes a yummy cheesecake! Can you clarify how much pumpkin puree to use? The recipe says: "1 Oz can pumpkin puree"

Thanks!

When using convection, you have to lower the temperature by about 25 degrees and keep an eye on things. I also learned this the hard way!

Thank you for the tip!! I will try that next time. I'm having a really hard time with this range. I have always had a basic run of the mill gas range my entire life. This electric range with all of its bells and whistles, has really got me. I have burnt just about everything i have tried to bake dessert wise. I'm not the best cook, but i have never been this bad.

      More proof she has a shopping problem. She sells stuff all the time. Therefore you don’t notice how much she constantly buys.

      More lies d from Braggie. She constantly complained about her concrete counter top because it was always chipping. She also complained about the paint on the cabinets chipping as well. She has been wanting to redo The Whole kitchen for awhile and a total gut job was not necessary at all. She lies as much as she breathes.

      Wow. That’s a really extreme reaction! I hope friend A got therapy or something. I could see not being able to handle throwing the baby shower, even explaining to friend B that it was just too raw and emotional for her to participate — but to completely cut her off as a friend and think it was insensitive for her friend to even celebrate? That’s showing some really deep issues. And if she already has a child, she’s bound to come across little girls at play groups, the park, school - she realistically can’t isolate herself from that….

      She never got therapy and actually had major issues with her own sister while she was pregnant. Once her sister had a boy, they were best of friends again. So unhealthy. I heard through the grapevine a few years ago that she had a second child and had a daughter. Now she acts like life is amazing and her family is complete. She still mentions her first daughter a lot (rightfully so), but I'm really hopeful that she doesn't compare her living daughter to her first daughter.

      True, we don't know what goes on behind the scenes, and perhaps I'm projecting a little.

      I had two friends that were best friends and had been since elementary school. So they had years of deep, solid friendship. They were both in each other's weddings, etc. Friend A got pregnant and Friend B threw her a massive baby shower. Everyone was so excited. Friend A gave birth at 39 weeks to a stillborn daughter. Entire friend group was devastated for her and did everything we could to support her. Two years after the loss, Friend A went on to have another child, this one a boy. Friend B threw another baby shower (this time after he had already arrived) and everyone was so happy. Two years later, Friend B gets pregnant. Friend A starts to get a little cagey. Doesn't know if she'll come to the shower, let alone throw it. Friend B finds out she's having a daughter and tells Friend A before the shower so she isn't surprised by it. Friend A is furious that Friend B is having a daughter and cuts her out cold turkey. Never speaks to her again. Removes herself completely from the friend group and tells everyone that we weren't supportive of her loss and it was incredibly insensitive for Friend B to have a baby shower for her daughter when Friend A never got to raise her daughter. 

      Soooo.... I understand situations like this can be tricky. I understood Friend A was hurt but I also thought Friend A was a bad friend for not being happy for Friend B for something she can't control (ie the sex of her unborn baby). This is what I mean by it's a fine line between protecting yourself but also sometimes having to put your own issues aside to support a love one.

      Probably.  She showed a big picture of the balloon release but I didn't look closely.  I was just glad that the family gathered around her when she needed it.  The lady's name was something like Tuff Decisions.

      She's just as good of a source as wacb
