Single-serving pumpkin cheesecakes are the perfect way to finish off a Thanksgiving meal for two (or any other meal, given that they take just 15 minutes of active prep time!). You can make them a day or two ahead of time and keep them tucked away in the fridge in their sturdy ramekins until you're ready to enjoy them.

EatingWell's Editorial Guidelines Published on October 29, 2020 Print Rate It Share Share Tweet Pin Email Active Time: 15 mins Total Time: 5 hrs Servings: 2 Nutrition Profile: Nut-Free Soy-Free Vegetarian Jump to Nutrition Facts Ingredients 6 gingersnaps, broken (about 1 1 /2 ounces) 2 teaspoons canola oil 4 ounces reduced-fat cream cheese, softened 2 tablespoons granulated sugar 2 tablespoons heavy cream ½ teaspoon vanilla extract 1 large egg ½ cup unseasoned pumpkin puree 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice Directions Preheat oven to 325°F. Line 2 6-ounce ramekins with foil and coat with cooking spray. Place gingersnaps in a mini food processor. Process until finely ground. Drizzle in oil and stir with a fork to combine. Divide the mixture between the prepared ramekins and press down with the back of a spoon. Beat cream cheese, sugar, cream and vanilla in a medium mixing bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until combined. Add egg and beat well. Add pumpkin puree and pumpkin pie spice and beat, scraping the sides of the bowl as needed, until just combined. Divide the batter between the ramekins. Place the ramekins in a small roasting pan. Add hot water to the roasting pan to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Carefully transfer to the oven; bake until the centers of the cheesecakes are set, about 40 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours. Lift the cheesecakes out of the ramekins and peel away the foil before serving. Tips Equipment: 2 6-ounce ramekins To make ahead: Refrigerate cheesecakes, covered, for up to 2 days.
