This is like a strawberry cheesecake and a cake all in one. I received this recipe at from a dear friend, and have been enjoying it ever since. Moist from the sour cream. It's just a great cake. You can mix it all in the food processor or one bowl with a mixer. This cake goes wonderful with a cup of tea or coffee..not a real sweet cake, but get a burst of sweet cream cheese/ strawberry with every mouthful..so good.. Always tested and approved by friends and family.. My pictures.

Cheesecake topping: In a medium mixing bowl; beat all ingredients for 1 minute until smooth; remove to a smaller bowl.

In the same bowl without cleaning the bowl, add in 1/2 cup butter and 1-1/3 cups sugar; blend until smooth (about 1 minute).
Step 4

Spoon on cream cheese mixture topping (don't worry if there are open spaces). I spread it a little with my finger.
Step 8

Drop jam dollops by teaspoonfuls over cake and cream cheese areas.
Step 9

Swirl the jam and the cream cheese topping to make a gentle marble effect.

Bake for 40 - 45 minutes, or until cake is set and the topping seems dry. Cool completely on rack and dust with powdered sugar, totally optional.. Enjoy!
