Directions
Olive Garden Pumpkin Cheesecake, This cheesecake is a difficult to find at The Olive Garden because they only have it during the fall., I make this recipe every year for thanksgiving and Christmas. Been making it for 5 years now. Make sure to wrap the canned pumpkin in paper towels for an hour before adding it to the mixture. I bake the sour cream layer 5 extra minutes personally. Make sure also to let it sit in your fridge overnight :, I have been making this wonderful cheesecake for a few years now. Absolutely amazing! It is a family favorite. Thank you so very much for sharing it!
