• With sharp knife, loosen cheesecake from sides of pan. Cool in pan for 2 hours.
• To serve, cut cheesecake into wedges. Top with whipped topping and nutmeg if desired.

Steps:

• Position the oven racks in center and lower third of your oven. Fill a roasting pan about half full of water and place on the lower rack. This will create a moist environment for the cheesecake and help prevent cracking. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Coat a 9-inch springform pan with nonstick cooking spray. Put the graham crackers and 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar in the bowl of a food processor and grind until fine. Add the butter and two tablespoons of water and pulse until moistened. Press into the bottom of the prepared springform pan. Bake until set and golden brown, about 10 minutes. Cool completely.
• Combine the cream cheese, brown sugar, 1/3 cup granulated sugar and salt in a large bowl. Beat, with an electric mixer on medium speed, until smooth and fluffy. Add the yogurt, egg and egg whites, reduce the mixer speed to low, and continue to beat until blended. Add the pumpkin, flour, vanilla and pumpkin pie spice. Reduce the mixer speed to low and beat until just combined. Stir with a spatula a few times to make sure all the ingredients are incorporated and to release any air bubbles in the batter that could cause the cheesecake to crack.
• Pour the batter over the crust and rap the pan against the countertop a few times to bring any trapped air bubbles to the surface. Place the cheesecake on the center rack in the oven. Bake until just set and the center wiggles slightly, about 1 hour to 1 hour and 10 minutes. Turn the oven off and crack the door open. Let sit in the oven for 15 minutes and then transfer to a wire rack to cool. Run a thin sharp knife between the cheesecake and then pan to release the sides. Cool completely and then chill until cold, at least 4 hours, or overnight.
• Before serving, remove the cheesecake from the refrigerator and release the sides of the pan. Sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar over the top of the cheesecake and brulee the sugar with a kitchen torch or under the broiler for a few seconds.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350-degrees.
• Mix 1/4c Splenda, ground nuts and butter.
• Press into springform pan.
• Bake for 20 minutes.
• Turn oven down to 300-degrees.
• Bring all cold ingredients to room temperature.
• With an electric mixer, combine the cream cheese and 1 c splenda at slow to medium speed, scraping sides often.
• Add all other ingredients except eggs and pumpkin.
• When completely mixed (with no lumps), add the eggs and egg yolk, one at a time, beating very slowly.
• Fold pumpkin into the batter.
• When pumpkin is blended, do not mix any more.
• Always treat the batter gently.
• Add the pumpkin batter to a well greased springform pan.
• Place the pan on a very large piece of aluminum foil, and fold the foil up around the pan to create a watertight barrier around the cheesecake.
• Then place the springform pan in an even larger pan and fill the larger pan halfway with water.
• This is called a water bath.
• It is a gentler way to cook the cheesecake.
• Place the entire water bath containing the cheesecake in a 300-degree preheated oven.
• Cook for 1 hour and reduce heat to 200 degrees for 1 more hour.
• Turn oven off and leave cheesecake in until the oven is completely cool.
• The cheesecake can even be left overnight at this point.
• Cracks can also occur when a cheesecake cools too quickly, so don't rush this process.
• Let it set up for several hours in the fridge, preferably overnight.
