Filling: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese at medium speed until smooth. Add sugar, flour, pumpkin pie spice, and ginger and beat until combined. Beat in the eggs one at a time, and then the pumpkin puree until it is just incorporated.
Pour the filling into the pan and bake until set at the edges but still soft at the center, about 45-60 minutes. Turn off the heat; crack open the oven door and let the cheesecake cool inside for 1 hour. Remove cheesecake from oven and set at room temperature until completely cool, 2-3 hours. Refrigerate until chilled, about 4 hours. Garnish with topping and serve. Cheesecake can be refrigerated for up to 2 days.
