Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Prepare the cheesecake layer by mixing softened cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Incorporate flour, vanilla extract, cinnamon, heavy whipping cream, and eggs. Pour into a greased springform pan and bake for about 60 minutes.
  2. For the spice cake layer, whisk together flour, baking powder, spices, and salt in one bowl. In another bowl, cream softened butter and brown sugar until fluffy; then mix in vegetable oil, vanilla extract, egg, and milk. Combine wet and dry ingredients.
  3. Assemble by placing the store-bought pumpkin pie on a platter, layering the cheesecake on top, followed by spreading the spice cake batter over it. Bake again until golden brown.
  4. For frosting, beat softened butter with powdered sugar until fluffy; add vanilla extract and cold heavy whipping cream to achieve desired consistency.
