A light and creamy pumpkin cheesecake in a richly decadent cookie crust.

Pumpkin cookie cheesecake is a simple, easy to make, dessert made with Greek Whips!

Let’s talk about traditions…I have noticed recently that nearly all of our holiday traditions are tied to food. There are traditional baking items, fun breakfast foods, goodies with share with others, and more. I love a good food tradition, and I think it is time to start building some new ones at our house.

Most of ours come from my family, my husband’s family doesn’t seem to have as many traditions. Not sure if that is good or bad. Either way, I figured rather than making every holiday tradition in our family, with our kids, be from MY family, we could start some of our own.

I am going to start with this light and airy cheesecake! It is made using Yoplait Greek 100 Whips Pumpkin Cheesecake yogurt, cream cheese, pumpkin, and a blend of spices. The crust is flavorful and textured, and made with sandwich cookies, graham crackers, brown sugar and pecans! It is everything you want in a dessert, and then some! And would make the perfect addition to a Thanksgiving dessert table.

Greek Whips make great light and airy cheesecake!

I love cheesecake, but rarely feel up to making it. It is so time consuming. It has SO MUCH cream cheese. It bakes forever! But I have changed all that with this simple cheesecake recipe. You guys, it is very delicious, and pretty simple to make. And uses easy ingredients, like Yoplait Greek 100 Whips! I call that a win.

Pumpkin cookie cheesecake is richly delicious and light and airy. Yum!

The first time I made this cheesecake I was very excited about it, and couldn’t wait to eat it. The flavors were spot on with what I wanted. But there was one problem. The crust. It tasted so good. But it was a little too hard, and did not easily remove from the bottom of the spring form pan.

So I made it again. Sad, right? More pumpkin cheesecake for me. Anyway, I think I was able to resolve the problems, and I certainly got to make sure the pumpkin cheesecake was all that I wanted it to be and more. It is not super sweet like some cheesecakes. The greek yogurt gives it a very slight tartness which is really refreshing. And the brown sugar and pecans in the OREO crust make it very rich and dreamy.

Want a bite of this light and airy pumpkin cookie cheesecake! it is as delicious as it looks.

If you are going to use pumpkin in only one way this fall, make it this way! You won’t regret it. It is seriously delicious.

Everything you need to make a rich and creamy, but oh so light and airy cheesecake!

Let’s get to the recipe:
