  5. Beat softened cream cheese until smooth, then incorporate granulated sugar and light brown sugar. Add pumpkin puree and sour cream, and blend until smooth.
  6. Add eggs one at a time, fully incorporating each before adding the next. Mix in flour and spices until just combined.
  7. Pour the filling into the cooled crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
  8. Bake for 1 hour and 45 minutes until edges are set and center is slightly wobbly. Internal temperature should be 140°F-150°F.
  9. Turn off the oven and crack the door open, letting the cheesecake cool for 30 minutes.
