Carrot Cake Cheesecake smothered with a cream cheese frosting and crushed pecans to add crunch, this impresses everyone. Especially when slicing and seeing those perfect layers of soft, creamy cheesecake AND carrot cake in one!

A few of you have emailed me, planning your Easter menus with the One Pan Lemon Garlic Salmon and Asparagus and those Crispy Garlic Butter Parmesan Smashed Potatoes. You’ve also been asking me for a dessert, and its not in my nature to leave you hanging. Having said that, the Nutella Stuffed Chocolate Chip Skillet Cookie would be a good idea and a definite crowd pleaser, or Nutella Churro Donut Holes, Strawberry Cheesecake Donut Holes or a 3-Ingredient Chocolate Mousse come to think of it! But this cheesecake is my gift to you.

Carrot Cake Cheesecake

With all of the carrot cakes floating around on the world wide web lately, I wanted to make this cake for those of us wanting to enjoy our Easter weekend with less guilt than normal carrot cakes, but still so decadent that your family would never guess this is lower in fat! Well, mine had absolutely no idea.

Inspired by The Cheesecake Factory, this cake is safe for all of us to eat! The original adaption calls for a lot of oil, but I’ve cut the oil down to ⅓! You can also keep this carrot cake cheesecake lower in calories and WW points with a natural granulated sweetener OR use normal sugar — it’s up to you! Our Easter family tradition is made up of seafood and Flan (Creme Caramel) with shards of toffee on the top, or Rice Pudding (Arroz Con Leche) for dessert. Now we’re breaking traditional and having Carrot Cake Cheesecake.
