Steps:
- Lightly grease a 9-inch springform pan.
- Combine walnuts, sugar, melted butter, flour, cinnamon, and salt for crust in the bowl of a food processor; pulse until well mixed and walnuts are ground. Spread mixture over the bottom of the prepared pan, pressing down to cover the entire bottom and a little bit up the sides. Place in the refrigerator until chilled, about 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Beat cream cheese and ricotta cheese in a mixing bowl until well combined. Stir in sugar, melted butter, eggs, cornstarch, flour, lemon juice, and vanilla. Add sour cream and pumpkin puree; stir to combine. Pour over the chilled crust.
- Bake in the preheated oven until edges are puffed and surface of cheesecake is firm except for a small spot in the center that will jiggle when the pan is gently shaken, about 1 hour. Turn off the oven and leave cheesecake in for 1 more hour.
- Remove from the oven. Run the tip of a table knife around the edges of the pan, set the pan on a wire rack, and allow the cheesecake to cool at room temperature, about 1 hour. Refrigerate until completely chilled, 4 hours to overnight.
- At the same time, chill a mixing bowl and whisk attachment in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes.
- Add whipping cream to the chilled bowl and whisk until soft peaks form. Whisk in pumpkin puree, powdered sugar, vanilla, pumpkin pie spice, and cinnamon.
- Remove cheesecake from the refrigerator. Remove the band from the pan; take a large knife or spatula and carefully run it under the bottom of the cheesecake to loosen it. Transfer cheesecake to a serving platter. Slice and serve with pumpkin whipped cream.

LIGHTER PUMPKIN CHEESECAKE (WITH RICOTTA AND CREAM CHEESE)
lighter texture and calories than regular cream cheese cheesecake. i also used fage full fat yogurt instead of sour cream but it won't recognize that ingredient. sour cream may be used or fage yogurt- don't use regular yogurt. all ingredients should be at room temp.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325˚ F. Wrap the outside (bottom and sides) of a 9-inch springform pan with foil to prevent any leaking. Make the crust: Pulse the cookies and sugar in a food processor until finely ground. Add the melted butter; pulse to combine. Firmly press into the bottom and 1/4 inch up the sides of the pan. Brush the exposed sides of the pan lightly with melted butter. Bake until the crust is golden and set, 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool completely. Wipe out the food processor.
- Meanwhile, make the filling: Drain the ricotta in a fine-mesh sieve, 20 minutes. Combine with the sugar in the food processor; pulse until smooth. Add the pumpkin, eggs, mascarpone, vanilla, pie spice and salt and pulse until combined. (Do not overblend.) Pour the filling into the cooled crust.
- Bake the cheesecake until set around the edges but the center still jiggles slightly, 1 1/2 hours to 1 hour 45 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool completely. Cover and refrigerate until cold and set, at least 8 hours or overnight.
- Make the topping: Chop 1 cup cranberries and combine in a small saucepan with the sugar, lemon juice, salt and water. Cook over medium heat until thick, 7 to 10 minutes. Stir in the remaining 3/4 cup whole cranberries; cook 2 more minutes. Let cool.
- Let the cheesecake sit at room temperature 20 minutes, then run a thin knife around the edge and remove the springform ring. Add a splash of water to the cranberry topping to loosen, if needed. Serve over the cheesecake.
