Looks great, P&B! Good for me as we don't get pumpkin here in Japan. Have a great day and stay connected!

[@paulandbenny]

Thank you again for watching. You could also use a winter squash if they are available in your area, but I think potato is best when available. Have an awesome day too!

Thank you! And thank you for watching our video.

[@sheilawebb9746]

I knew this had to be a thing. I was gonna make a regular sweet potato pie, but regular pie crust is too boring to me, & i thought i need graham cracker crust! So i searched for sweet potato cheesecake, & found this. It's looks so good, I'm gonna try it. Thanks for the recipe!

[@paulandbenny]

I hope you love it. Please let us know how it turns out, and thank you for watching our channel😃

im making this for christmas since the audience (my family) wanted regular pie for thanksgiving

[@paulandbenny]

I hope you and your family love it. Even my family that doesn't like sweet potato or pumpkin liked it. 😁

Making this for friendsgiving

[@paulandbenny]

Yum! I hope you love it as much as we do. Thank you for watching!

[@BobbiJo]

I love cheesecake! Looks delicious!

[@paulandbenny]

Thank you! We love it too. Do you think it would turn out if we tried to make it sugar free? You're kinda the expert in that area. 🙂

[@BobbiJo]

@@paulandbenny I haven't made a sugar free cheesecake yet. It is on my list of Christmas recipes to try. I think it would be good though. Swerve or monk fruit have been my go to sugar substitutes. They have the best taste.

[@paulandbenny]

@@BobbiJo Awesome. Thanks for the suggestion. We might need to give it a try before Christmas 🎄

[@absolutelynina8187]

Looks delicious 😋. Thanks for sharing ☺️

Paul Acabo de descubrir tu canal y aunque mi inglés no es bueno, entendí tus explicaciones. Seria estupendo que colocarás subtítulos en español,para que nuestra comunidad hispana disfrutara de tus maravillosas recetas tan sencillas,buenas y bien explicadas. Te dejo esa sugerencia okey?

[@paulandbenny]

Somehow I am just seeing your comment. Thank you very much for the suggestion and thank you for watching. I will see if I can add Spanish subtitles 👍

[@kathyharris4513]

I made this before for a party and it turned out delicious. I just got a request to make another one. Thanks for the recipe. Love you guys.😄😄

[@paulandbenny]

It makes our day to hear you liked it! When someone asks for another, you know it's good😊 Thank you VERY much for watching and for letting us know.

[@maggiekganaway2871]

Looks delish!! I’m the resident baker for friend gatherings and a sweet potato cheesecake was requested this year.. what toppings would compliment this? Would whip and candied pecans be too sweet? And thanks for posting this!! 😊😊

[@paulandbenny]

Thank you! I think the candied pecans would be great with it. It's not super sweet so it shouldn't be a problem. Yes to the whipped cream too😃

[@Esmeraldream]

So I watched a couple of videos looking for the perfect sweet potato cheesecake and this is the one I'm going with. Can't wait to try it. Just a question, the ingredient list calls for a pinch of salt for the crust but I didn't see you mixing it in during the video, just wanted to confirm it's still required. Thanks!

[@paulandbenny]

Hi Lenny! Thank you for watching..we hope you love the cheesecake. Great question. Yes, we forgot to record it but we added the salt. It's not absolutely necessary but it does help bring out the flavor. Let us know what you think🙂

[@Esmeraldream]

@@paulandbenny 3 months later and I finally came around to trying your fabulous recipe. Not bad for my first cheesecake ever 🙌 my husband is a chef in Hell’s Kitchen and said it’s delicious! Sharing with family and coworkers 👏 I personally didn’t add the pumpkin pie spice (will try it next time and let you know) and only used 1.5 tsp cinnamon. Even with these adjustments it was superb. I’m thinking of making it my traditional Fall/Thanksgiving dessert. Thanks for sharing!

[@paulandbenny]

@@Esmeraldream So happy you made it and you both liked it!😊 This made our day. I bet it's good with just the cinnamon. It's going to be our new fall standby as well. 👍 We've had a bit of a scheduling issue recording lately but hope to share more cheesecake ideas asap. Thank you so much Lenny!

[@Esmeraldream]

@@paulandbenny A day later and couldn’t wait to make it again 😂 I incorporated the pumpkin pie spice this time around and you’re right, it’s on another level 🙌 there’s no going back from here 👏 my husband said “How are you making this?!” 😂 my parents, sister, neighbor, aunt, and coworker all tried it… they can’t all be wrong right? It was a hit for sure 🥳. Thanks again!

[@andreawilliams9494]

Amazing I just watched your video OMG 😍 I love pecans and can't wait to try this recipe. Was that a 6" pan?

[@paulandbenny]

Thank you.. the pecans add so much flavor. We hope you love it! We used a 9" spring form pan.

[@lolaeliassen]

This looks sooo good! Can I replace the flour and milk or at least the milk with sour cream?

[@paulandbenny]

Good question. I've replaced some of the milk with sour cream in other cheesecakes and it came out great. I haven't tried with this recipe, but I'm assuming it will be fine👍

[@lio-o97]

I had no pumkin pie spice so i just added ginger, nutmeg and cinnamon but it was still great except that the pie wasn't super soft enough because i baked it like an hour or less, next time i would buy the pumkin spice and will bake it for 25 minutes then it's gonna be perfect

[@sharecePoo]

I made this last year for thanksgiving and I’m going to again. Did you use a water bath?

[@paulandbenny]

Thank you so much for the feedback. So happy you liked it. I didn’t use a water bath (sorry I’m just seeing your comment) Maybe if I used one it wouldn’t have cracked a little 😆

[@sharecePoo]

@@paulandbenny I didn’t either still came out great!

[@paulandbenny]

@@sharecePoo 🎉🎉🎉🎉 So Happy to hear this!

[@mendingfencesable]

Do you use salted or unsalted butter for this recipe?

[@paulandbenny]

Good question. I used salted butter. I should have mentioned that. All the butter I use is salted.

[@lorireeves1689]

Benny what size pan. I have several of these pans that are in different sizes. 🥴🥴🥴.

[@paulandbenny]

Sorry I’m just seeing this message. It is a 9 inch pan. You could use 8 if needed and bake a few minutes longer. Thank you for watching. Did you make one?

[@wreckitleo]

hey do you use salted or unsalted butter?

[@paulandbenny]

I use salted because that's what I have on hand. You can use unsalted though and add an extra pinch if you'd like. Thank you for watching!

[@wreckitleo]

@@paulandbenny ok thanks

[@paulandbenny]

@@wreckitleo My pleasure. If you make it, we'd love to hear what you think.

[@wreckitleo]

hey so my girlfriend made it yesterday but she said it was a little "thick" but still very very good i loved it but is there anything you would suggest to make it more "lighter" or "airy"?.. it was super good though we both like that its not super sweet. thanks again!

[@paulandbenny]

@@wreckitleo Thank you for taking the time to give feedback! We're glad you tried it and liked it. Great point- Some people beat the egg whites until they have soft peaks, then fold them into the rest of the batter to lighten it up . It gives it an airy-er texture. It takes an extra couple minutes, but it's worth it. 👍

[@spiceanddice10]

Would it be just as good if I use walnuts?

[@paulandbenny]

I think so. 👍 I love walnuts!

[@iamjennifer_ray]

Can it be frozen overnight? vs fridge?

[@paulandbenny]

Great question. Yes. When I made it for the video, I sliced it up after, froze it and took slices to family the next week. It freezes wonderfully.

[@iamjennifer_ray]

@@paulandbenny great because mine is about to come out the oven now 🥰✨ I’m going to let it cool then freeze it

[@paulandbenny]

Well, I’m about to bake this sweet potato cheesecake and I really hope that you didn’t grease the sides of your pan anyway, wish me luck❤

I can't wait to hear what you think about it! You're right😁 I didn't grease the pan. Good luck!!🎉 And thank you for watching our video👍

[@rebeccahutcheson599]

@@paulandbenny hey Paul hope you’re having amazing morning. I wanted to take the time to reach out to you and tell you that sweet potato cheesecake turned out absolutely not only beautiful, but amazing and taste. My sister even took an extra time to reach out to me and you gotta know she’s a major Baker. Anyway, she took the time to reach out to me and said.” oh my god that cheesecake is amazing.”. So it was a win-win. Thank you again. I’ve already looked up how to make graham crackers homemade I’m gonna start doing that and freezing them. Because everything I looked at was enriched flour, which is not healthy for us at all. And I’m a big-time advocate on Health. And there was no organic ones available at the store where I was. I also know that I can reduce the sugar in this as well and still give it an amazing flavor and I’m also going to add some Chia seeds pecans to the sweet potato for more nutritional value. I didn’t want to mess with it. The first go around because I needed to see what it was going to do how it was going to act and what kind of flavors it was gonna have. Now it is an amazing, amazing recipe. I’m just going to throw in nutritional value. Anyway, thanks again my friend that was bad ass. Have an amazing day.👊💖

[@rebeccahutcheson599]

And I should say more nutritional value. We know the sweet potatoes nutritional. I can add extra by Millie, my own flour and making my own Graham crackers and all the things that I listed above and we already know that sweet potato is super healthy for us. Anyway, I wanted to make sure I wasn’t downgrading the cake at all💪💖

[@rebeccahutcheson599]

@@paulandbenny OK I just want you to know that my sister just reached out to me again now she’s not a very complementary person and she said that recipe is a keeper. She said the boys were fighting over the last piece of cheesecake.🤣 anyway and it freezes well there’s no reason to have to wait till holidays to make this gorgeous recipe. And I serve it to myself along side organic salted caramel ice cream. Of course all my ingredients that go into my pie are also organic just because I like to stay away from round up or anything else it is nasty industry throw it is. But that recipe is a keeper sweetie. Thank you again💪💖

[@paulandbenny]

@@rebeccahutcheson599 this is awesome to hear. I love that you made it as nutritious as possible and that your sister even loved it. Yes, it freezes great and sounds great with that ice cream. Thank you so much!
