Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease two 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. For the cinnamon cheesecake layer: Beat softened cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add flour, vanilla, cinnamon, heavy cream, and eggs; mix until well combined. Pour into prepared pans and bake for about 45 minutes or until set.
  3. For the spice cake layer: Whisk together flour, baking powder, spices, and salt. Cream butter with brown sugar until fluffy. Mix in oil and eggs; alternate adding dry ingredients with milk. Pour into one greased pan and bake for about 25 minutes.
  4. Once cooled, assemble by layering spice cake on a platter, topping with the pumpkin pie followed by cheesecake, then another spice cake layer.
  5. For frosting: Beat softened butter until creamy; gradually add powdered sugar, vanilla, and optional cinnamon. Adjust consistency with cold heavy cream as needed and frost the assembled piecaken.
