These pumpkin cheesecake bars are made with a spiced graham cracker crust, spiced and creamy pumpkin cheesecake filling, and topped with whipped cream and caramel sauce!

Into a small to medium mixing bowl, add the graham crackers crumbs, cinnamon, sugar, and kosher salt. Mix well.

Add the melted butter. Mix with a spoon until the crumbs are coated with butter.

Transfer the crumbs into a prepared 9 by 9-inch pan, pressing evenly and firmly into the pan, and bake.

In a big mixing bowl, add the room-temperature cream cheese, and sour cream, and mix with an electric hand mixer until the cream cheese is creamy.

Add the granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cornstarch, ginger, and vanilla extract, and mix until well combined.

Whisk the eggs with a fork and add them to the mixture. Add the pumpkin puree and mix until well combined. 

Pour the cheesecake batter over the crust, and release air bubbles by gently tapping the pan onto a flat surface.

Bake the cheesecake in a 140c (280f) preheated oven for about 30-40 minutes.

Top the chilled cheesecake with the whipped cream and smooth an even layer on top of the cheesecake.

Top it with a drizzle of caramel sauce. Sprinkle cinnamon, slice, and serve!

Slice and enjoy!
