    I'VE MADE THIS CHEESECAKE WITH AND WITH OUT THE SOUR TOPPING. WITHOUT THE SOUR TOPPING THIS IS AN AWESOME CHEESECAKE. THE WHOLE THING WAS CONSUMED NOT A CRUMB LEFT.

    I MADE THIS CHEESECAKE WITH THE TOPPING AND HAD TO TAKE HALF OF IT HOME EVERYONE SAID NO TO THE SOUR TOPPING. ONLY FOR THAT REASON CAN I GIVE IT A 4 STAR RATING.

    All you need to do is adjust the sour cream topping to 1 cup of sour cream and 3/4 cup of sugar. I think there was a mistake in the original recipe for that topping. It came out beautiful and tasted amazing!

    My cheesecake was a great success!! Everyone loved it but i wish i had read the reviews before i made the topping., The sugar and sourcream measurements need to be swtiched. Read the other reviews for exact amounts. I made the topping as recipe instructs and I thought the topping was too sweet!

    This was a hug hit for me ! I will be making this often!

    For those who thought that it was hard to make, probably don't know how to cook at all. I made the cake and it turned out perfect I didn't make the topping because I didn't think that it was necessary. Thank you for the recipe it's grrreeeeaaatttt for the holidays something new and original that is hand made!!!

    Great cheesecake, easier than I thought. The first time I made this the topping looked and tasted and looked like a brown sugary paste. After reading the reviews I used 1 cup sour cream to 1/4 cup sugar, it worked great thanks for the help! By the way, there are 4 people in my family and the cheesecake disappeared in 2 days.

    Beware, your friends and family will make you a cheesecake slave after you serve them this recpie! I've made 5 in the last week after serving one last weekend. It is to die for. I did add more lemon zest and baked it in a convection oven, the result was amazing. Light, fluffy, and simply delicious. I'm putting it on my new menu at my restaurant. We also froze one and it was even better than fresh.

    This is a tasty, basic recipe. However, the amount of sourcream topping needs to be increased. I used 1 cup of sourcream and 1/4 cup sugar, and I could have used more sourcream in order to cover the top of the cake.
    The cake seems to improve with age.
