Pumpkin Walnut Cheesecake

Cheesecakes are not one of my favorite dessert foods.  It’s the cream cheese that I don’t like.  I like cream cheese when it’s sweetened, like in frosting, or when mixed into muffins, but I don’t like it on its own or when the flavor of the cream cheese is too prominent.

This month’s Taste Of Home magazine featured quite a few cheesecake recipes and they all looked amazing to me.  It made me wish that I liked cheesecakes!  I decided to try one of the recipes; maybe my tastes had changed since I last had cheesecake.  I chose the pumpkin cheesecake, because I love pumpkin.

Now, I’ve never made a cheesecake before, so I was entering new territory!  The process of putting it together was extremely easy.  I was looking forward to having a cheesecake that was as beautiful and yummy-looking as was in the picture in the magazine.

But, it ended up being not as pretty…
