Pumpkin orange cheesecake with chocolate and confit oranges in sugar
Pumpkin orange cheesecake with spicy biscuit base. It is an autumn dessert, as well as a cheesecake with a festive atmosphere. Oranges, spices and chocolate are indispensably associated with Christmas. So let's celebrate the whole year!

Oranges and tangerines with green, shiny leaves appeared in stores. The fruit looks as if it has just been plucked from the tree. They are hard to resist, so a pair ended up in the basket. Of course, the prettiest ones and those with the most leaves... The leaves perfectly complemented the decoration of the cheesecake. Can you eat them? I don't know, so don't try...

- When the cheesecake is baked, let it cool down in the slightly open oven.
CONFIT ORANGE IN SUGAR
- We weigh the oranges and measure out the same amount of sugar.
- Scrub the fruit thoroughly and steam it twice.
- We cut into slices about 3 mm thick.
- Put it in a saucepan, sprinkle with half the sugar and pour in enough water to cover the fruit.
- Cook covered over low heat for 30 minutes, cool down.
- After cooling down, add the rest of the sugar and cook over low heat for about 1 hour, this time cover the pan halfway with the lid so that the syrup can slightly reduce.
- Put the finished orange slices on baking paper to cool down.
- Pour the syrup into the jar.

Topping
- Chocolate finely and put into a bowl.
- In a saucepan, boil the cream with orange confit syrup and pour the hot liquid over the chopped chocolate.
- After two minutes, mix thoroughly and pour over the cheesecake.
- Finally, decorate with confit oranges.
* Pumpkin purée - Cut the pumpkin in half, remove the seeds along with the fibrous pulp, and cut into small pieces. Place on a baking tray lined with baking paper, skin side down, and bake for about 40 minutes at 200°C, until soft. After cooling, separate the flesh from the skin and blend to a smooth purée.
