For The Pumpkin Cheesecake:
Heat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Separate 6 eggs. Place the yolks in one bowl and the whites in another bowl.
Whip one 8 oz. block of room temperature full fat cream cheese with a hand mixer or KitchenAid mixer until light and fluffy.It's very important that the cream cheese is room temperature, or the cheesecake will be chunky and dense. Add whipped cream cheese to the egg yolks along with 1 cup of pumpkin puree, ½ cup sugar, and 1 tsp. vanilla. Mix until all the ingredients are combined.
Place the egg whites into a Kitchen Aid stand mixer and beat on medium-high speed with the whisk attachment for 7 to 8 minutes or so or until the meringue has formed stiff peaks.
Add the meringue to the pumpkin batter one scoop at a time. Fold the meringue in slowly until it is all incorporated. Be careful not to mix too vigorously or mixture will fall.
Spray a springform pan generously with cooking spray.
Pour the cheesecake batter into the sprayed pan and spread evenly.
Wrap the springform pan tightly in aluminum foil and place into a rectangular cake pan. The round cake pan should fit snugly into the cake pan. Pour an inch or so of water into the rectangular cake pan being careful not to get any water in the cheesecake batter.
Carefully place the cake pan into the oven and bake for 40 minutes. Once it has baked for 40 minutes, turn off heat and keep in oven for an additional 15 minutes.
Once the cheesecake has baked remove from oven and let cool completely.
