  When cheesecake is done baking for an hour take out and let stand 10 minutes. Use this time to make 2nd layer. Do not turn off the oven. 2nd layer 24 oz of sour cream (I use regular, light and reduced fat and not a difference in taste) ½ cup of sugar 1 teaspoon of vanilla Add all ingredients and mix well then pour over 1st layer. Bake an additional 10 minutes at 300 degrees. Let cool before putting it in the refrigerator. Serve cold it tastes better. You can add cherry fruit topping but we prefer it without it.
