Instructions
Prepare the graham cracker crust by combining graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, granulated sugar, and salt. Press into the bottom of a springform pan.
For the cheesecake filling, beat together softened cream cheese, sweet potato puree, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, then stir in heavy cream, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt.
Pour the filling over the crust and bake in a water bath at 325°F (160°C) for 60 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center still jiggles slightly.
Let the cheesecake cool completely in the oven with the door ajar, then refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight.
To make the pecan praline topping, melt butter in a saucepan. Add brown sugar, heavy cream, vanilla extract, and salt. Bring to a boil, then simmer for a few minutes until thickened. Stir in the pecans.
Pour the praline topping over the cooled cheesecake and serve.
