I have a new kitchen gadget!
Mini cheesecake pan and I absolutely love it. Love at first sight. I’m not sure what took me this long to get one of these awesome pans but regardless I’m in the need of another one, because one is just not enough.

My wonderful neighbors gave me sugar pumpkins and I made delicious, to die for delicious puree, so sweet you’d think I for sure added sugar. I didn’t. I found myself snacking on  bright orange puree, with a spoon.  I froze about 2 quarts for later and rest I used to make these beautiful, delicious treats. Pumpkin chocolate chip cheesecakes. Enjoy.

1 packet of graham crackers(9 whole cookies)

1egg whites(or us 1 1/2 tbl melted butter)
1tsp instant coffee(optional)
Preheat oven to 350F.
Spray the pan with a non stick spray, set aside.
Process crackers in a small food processor until fine, add oats, sugar, cinnamon and coffee, if using. Stir in egg whites until when pressed between fingers mixture holds together.
