Make a Pumpkin Cheesecake Brownie Pie and watch everyone smile as they cut into the layers. A gooey brownie bottom with creamy pumpkin cheesecake makes the perfect fall dessert.
Do you ever bake a dessert that gives you that happy, dance for joy kind of feelings? You know the dessert that gives you butterflies every time you open the fridge to stare at it while it is chilling because you know it is going to taste so good.
Quite honestly, this layered pumpkin pie is going to give you those feelings in your stomach because you will not be able to stop looking at it.
You will keep opening the refrigerator door just to stare at it again and again. And bite after bite will disappear into your mouth when you cut that first piece!!!
I’m on a roll making all kinds of pumpkin goodness right now.
Recently I made a Salted Caramel Pumpkin Latte, this Pumpkin Potato Corn Chowder, and a batch of Homemade Pumpkin Butter. Then I got the idea for this pumpkin cheesecake pie. What??? There was pumpkin left in the fridge, so I didn’t want to be wasteful.
I literally begged my husband to take this brownie pie to work with him after I made it. I could NOT be trusted around a decadent, gooey pie like this!!
It was everything a fall pie should be.
You are going to want to make this fall brownie pie soon. Like this weekend soon!! Or just put it on your Thanksgiving Day pie list, but I highly recommend making it sooner!
Have you looked at those layers? Even your thighs are begging you to make this one.
How to make a Pumpkin Cheesecake Brownie Pie:
Crust – Unroll a refrigerated pie crust and place it in a deep dish pie plate. You can also use a homemade pie crust if you prefer.
Brownies – Mix a box brownie mix with oil, water, instant coffee, and an egg. Spread in bottom of pie crust and bake.
Pumpkin Cheesecake – Beat cream cheese and sugar until creamy. Add vanilla, spices, egg, flour, and pumpkin puree and beat again. Spread gently on top of baked brownie layer and bake again.
Cool Whip – Once the pie has cooled, spread whipped topping on top of the pie and sprinkle with cinnamon. You can also use Homemade Whipped Cream or Chai Whipped Cream in place of the store bought topping.

- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Roll out the refrigerated pie crust. Place the crust in a 9.5 inch deep dish pie plate. Refrigerate until ready to fill.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the brownie mix, oil, water, instant coffee, and 1 egg. Beat until combined. Carefully spread in the bottom of the pie crust. Bake for 30 minutes.
- While the brownie layer is baking, beat the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Add the egg and pumpkin and beat again. Slowly add in the cinnamon, nutmeg, and flour.
- When the brownie layer is finished baking, remove it from the oven and carefully spread the cheesecake batter on top of the brownie layer. Place pie back in the oven and bake another 25 minutes.

You’re right, just looking at these photos and I get jumpy feelings in my stomach.
These brownies look scrumptious and they’re screaming my name!!
I get the same way when I see a cop car. Every morning on my way to work the cops sit in the same place and I always slow way down and everyone ends up passing me. This pie looks amazing!! I wish I could grab a piece through the screen!
Oh Jocelyn…I’m not sure I have any words for this one – I’m in deliciousness shock! This looks AMAZING! I knew you were just teasing about being done with pumpkin 🙂 How was the pumpkin soup that you made?
I knew I wouldn’t stay away from the pumpkin for long!!! The soup was awesome…hopefully I will post that one soon too!!!
OMG… OMG…. I want to say something wonderful and witty and charming but OMG…
LOL I completely understand!!!
That pie looks amazing! Too bad we can’t sample through the computer…that could be dangerous. Speaking of dangerous…I’m glad I’m not the only one who gets like that when a cop pulls up behind me. I always do the same as you, and straighten my posture and tighten my grip on the wheel. lol.
Mmmmmm……Thanks for sharing this. It looks amazing! (New follower- found you through Online BlogCon!)
Have an great weekend- with hopefully no cops driving behind you!
hey you should keep this pie in your car if and when a cop pulls you over. there’s no way he’d give you a ticket! LOL
1) I love that this is SO easy to make… and looks beyond gorgeous to boot!
2) I always get the same way with cops. They give me the heebie-jeebies even if I’m doing nothing wrong. Don’t bust me!
3) See #2. I need a pie.
That is one heck of a bite! Wow, it looks delicious and creamy! You can’t have enough pumpkin really! Oh I hate it when cops follow me, I agree that is the worst feeling!
No, you really can’t have enough pumpkin recipes:-)
Love your blog, very nice! This recipe looks fantastic. Cannot wait to try it. Stop by and visit us. We are having a terrific giveaway from a Southern author this week. Register in the Televenge post!
Oh my. Those layers look incredible! This pie needs to be at my house right now!
The layers are definitely the best part of the pie!!!
Bring on the sugar high!
Cheesecake, pumpkin, AND brownie?!? That is the perfect dessert!! Thanks for sharing at Foodie Friends Friday!
I agree…perfect dessert for this time of year!!!!
My heart always skips a beat when i see police cars! even if i’m doing nothing wrong, lol..i just hate them!! cause they always have some dumb excuse if they come after you. my heart is skipping a beat now staring at this cheesecake brownie pie!! delicious!!
This pie will definitely make your heart start to skip beats:-)
That tiny pumpkin makes me feel lonely. lol

Wow four layers of heaven! I will make this pie for thanksgiving dessert – and once before just for practice! (:
Thanks for sharing with us at Foodie Friends Friday but shame on you! I have fresh pumpkin puree in the fridge and you know I have to use it now! OMGosh that looks fab. Will let you know how quickly this one disappears at my house 🙂

I really want to make these! But the directions are a little confusing, step by step pictures help a lot!
Oh my, this looks soooo good. Digging that brownie layer and the cheesecake layer too.
And yes! I do the exact same when I just happen to look in my rearview mirror and see the police behind me too. First thing I do is look at my speed. I normally then switch my car onto cruise control at the speed limit so I know I won’t end up going over too. Haha.

Oh my goodness Jocelyn, where has this pie been all my life? To. Die. For. Totally pinned, totally making it. And I HATE when a cop is behind me. Or when I realize one is hiding behind the bushes as I drive past. Jitters, every time!!!
Ha! I do the same when I see a police car – immediately check my speedometer. Your pie looks heavenly. I’ve seen a lot of pumpkin cheesecake in blogland right now but none with an amazing brownie layer in it. So going to make this. Thanks!
This pie is out of this world. I could not be trusted with it because it would be gone in 24 hours! And I’m right there with you…love my Cool Whip with a side of pie 🙂
Oh my gosh, I totally know what you mean about cops and butterflies. Happens to me EVERY time! But this pie could certainly make me feel better 🙂
Holy cow, that looks heavenly. Pumpkin…brownies…stop!! I would love to have you stop by ‘Or so she says…’ today and share some of your great ideas with my readers! The ‘Your Great Idea’ link party runs every Sat through Tuesday. Hope to see you there! http://www.oneshetwoshe.com

That looks delicious! I would never have thought to make a pie with those three flavors. I will have to try it soon!
These three flavors work so well together:-)
I want to make this today, I believe I have all the ingredients! Now to find the time… 😉
You are going to want to find the time somewhere to make this one:-) I hope you enjoy it!!!
Yummy, this pie sounds and looks amazing. I am pinning it for Thanksgiving. Smiles, Paula
Just found your recipe on Foodie Friends Friday. Looks delicious!
Have I told you lately I love you? Now hand over a slice and no one will get hurt! I can’t wait to give this a try! Pinned!
If I had any left, I would most definitely invite you over for coffee and pie:-)
Only 3 letters need to be applied. O.M.G.!!!!
haha! I totally agree:-)
Hi Jocelyn: I’m Connie at http://hotflashncraftn.blogspot.com/, a new GFC friend. I would love if you stop by and be mine, too.
This looks so fantastic. Thanks for sharing the recipe!
Oh wow! I think this will be on our table for Thanksgiving dinner. Why choose between pie or cheesecake if you don’t have to.
Thanks for sharing at Mealtime Monday!

It’s the best of both worlds when pie meets cheesecake:-)
OH MAN! I thought I was onto something when I did the similar pie… but cheesecake added into it?! Pure genius my friend.
I love that we made something so similar:-)
YUM!! Who can wait until Thanksgiving?!

This. Sounds. Amazing!
This looks amazing and I want to make it for Thanksgiving but I do not like coffee. Can the coffee be omitted?
You can leave out the coffee and it won’t affect it at all. The coffee in it just helps deepen the chocolate flavor!!!
Glad you didn’t get a ticket! This treat looks delish. It’s party worthy!
I’ve got to try this! I love making cheesecakes! I have made a chocolate chip brownie cheesecake before and it was oh so good and rich, now I must try this too! thanks!
I made this tonight and let me just say it was AMAZING!!! I will def be making this again- would be a perfect dish to push you over the edge on Thanksgiving- decadent!!!! Thank you so much for the recipe!!!
I am so excited to hear that you made it and loved it so much! It is definitely a perfect end to a Thanksgiving dinner!!!
I just made this and my pie tin was overflowing before even putting any cool whip. Did I miss a note that said only use part of the brownie mix?? 🙁
No, you didn’t miss anything. Did you follow my brownie instructions? You do NOT want to follow the box instructions because it is different. Also, what size is your pie tin? I used a glass pie plate that was 10 inches just like the recipe calls for. Anything smaller and it won’t fit. Also, it will seem like it is full when the brownie comes out of the oven, and you will wonder how the cheesecake will fit, but as long as you followed the directions exactly it will work. I hope you enjoy it!
That looks insanely delicious!!! Pinning and trying it out ASAP!
Thank you so much. I hope you enjoy it as much as we did!!!
Featuring YOU today! Thanks so much for linking up to {wow me} wednesday!

This looks so good! Found your recipe on Pinterest =)
I just got a shock of sweetness by looking at these pictures. This pie looks so extremely gorgeous and delicious – I am flashed by this recipe!
Oh, WOW. This looks so yummy! Pinning it now 🙂
Just wondering, with the bake time between the brownies and then again with the cheesecake
if it make the brownie layer overcooked?
No it will not be over baked at all. I have made it several times and the brownie layer is always soft and gooey still. I hope you try it!!!
Oh I love the duo! Maybe I can convince my dad to do this instead of traditional pumpkin pie for Thanksgiving.
Sorry, I don’t know ANY really good cooks or bakers who would use “plastic” cool whip in a quality recipe…. I don’t believe in store bought crusts, box mixes, or anything less than pure whipping cream and real butter.
I am sorry you feel that way. I am a semi homemade baker who happens to love Cool Whip, store bought pie crusts and box mixes. Everyone has their own preferences 🙂
Hi Jocelyn,
I hate to be a nay-sayer, but in this case, I will. Why do you cut shapes from the second pie crust to put onto the first crust when they will be covered and unseen? Why not just double the recipe and make two pies? That will be my plan when I make this for Thanksgiving. Other than that, this pie looks amazing, and I can’t wait to try it!
Bring on any constructive comments for sure! I guess my thinking was that you would really see them after the pie was done. It was done for look, but didn’t work out quite like I planned. I still added it to the recipe if someone wanted to do it and use less Cool Whip! Your idea of two pies makes more sense though 🙂
Can you tell me what brand of brownie mix you use? There are so many different brands, each with a different flavor…some are dark chocolate fudge, some are milk chocolate. I want to use the same one you use!
I use a couple different ones when I do a mix. Sometimes it is a Pillsbury or a Duncan Hines, but my favorite box brownie mix is actually from Aldi.

I don’t understand what the second pie crust is for?
I just used the second pie crust to cut out small shapes that went around the edge of the pie. You don’t have to do that if you don’t want to.
This pie looks amazing Jocelyn! I love all those colorful layers!
I’m not a big cool whip person, how do you think this would be with fresh whipped cream put on top right before serving? Or I’m trying to think if there is another alternative to cool whip. Thanks!!
Fresh whipped cream would be fine, but you would have to make it and serve it with the pie right away. I don’t think you would want to top the pie with it and store it that way in the refrigerator though.

I am a little confused on the recipe. I see in step #3 it says add egg, pumpkin and cream but I don’t see any cream listed in the ingredients. Should there be cream listed in the ingredients?
Thank you.
These is no cream in this recipe. The “cream” you are referring to is just another way to say beat. Sorry the recipe was confusing.

This recipe looks delicious! Could you make it without the coffee in the brownie mix?
Thanks!
Yes, you can leave the coffee out if you don’t want it. You don’t taste the coffee. It just enhances the chocolate more! I hope you enjoy it!!
Now this is a pumpkin pie I could sink my spoon into! Forget the other version-this has my name on it! Pinning for sure!
