made this as a pumpkin crumble instead of the caramel and whipped cream toppings and it was a hit! crumble recipe was: 6 tbs all-purpose flour 3 tbs brown sugar 3 tbs unsalted butter (melted) 1/4 tsp pumpkin spice (optional; I just mixed the same spices as listed in the cheesecake recipe)
Made this last fall and it was such a hit, several people asked me to make it again for events! absolutely delicious dessert, although I found it a bit heavy with the caramel; I preferred using maple syrup
