Instructions

Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
For the cheesecake layer, beat softened cream cheese and granulated sugar until smooth. Mix in flour, vanilla extract, cinnamon, heavy cream, and eggs until well combined.
In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and spices for the spice cake. Beat softened butter with brown sugar until fluffy; add vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and egg. Mix in dry ingredients along with milk.
Assemble by layering the pumpkin pie in a baking dish followed by half of the cheesecake mixture and half of the spice cake batter. Repeat layers and bake for about an hour or until set.
Allow cooling completely before frosting with whipped buttercream.
