Here I am, posting a pumpkin cheesecake recipe AFTER THANKSGIVING people. Who am I and what gives me the right to do that? Well, I did make and remake 2 of these scrumptious cheesecakes BEFORE Thanksgiving but then life happened and here we are 6 days post feast and I’m just now getting the recipe up. But y’now what the good news is? This blog thing will kind of live on the internet for all eternity and there’s going to be another eternity of Thanksgiving dinners, so let’s all just take a chill pill.

Also, maybe you’re somebody who doesn’t discriminate and eats pumpkin all the way through Christmas (or God forbid, all year round!!) Then, this recipe is perfect to get you through the dark days when pumpkin recipes are no longer being plastered all over the internet.

If you haven’t yet made a cheesecake in your pressure cooker, I highly recommend starting with this one! It’s super simple and doesn’t require a extravagant topping, but it’s still as delicious as can be.
