Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese (softened)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/4 teaspoon allspice
  • 1/4 cup butter (softened)
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar (packed)
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/3 cup + 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1 (9-inch) store-bought pumpkin pie (premade/storebought)
  • 12 ounces unsalted butter (softened, 3 sticks)
  • 5 cups powdered sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
  • 3–4 tablespoons heavy whipping cream (cold)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Prepare the cheesecake layer by mixing softened cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add flour, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Fold in whipped cream and eggs gently.
  2. In another bowl for the spice cake layer, whisk flour with baking powder and spices. Cream butter and brown sugar before adding oil, vanilla extract, egg, and milk. Combine wet and dry ingredients.
  3. Assemble by placing the pumpkin pie at the bottom of a springform pan. Pour half of the cheesecake batter over it followed by half of the spice cake batter. Repeat layering until all batter is used.
  4. Bake for about 60 minutes or until set but slightly jiggly in the center. Allow to cool completely before releasing from the pan.
  5. Make frosting by beating softened butter with powdered sugar gradually; add vanilla and cold heavy whipping cream until fluffy peaks form.
  6. Frost your cooled piecaken generously and decorate with optional toppings like sprinkles or crushed nuts.
