Notes

Can this Cheesecake Pie be frozen?
Many times I would gladly say yes. However, with this pie, and the Sour Cream on the top I have to say it is not a good idea to freeze this pie. There will be a texture difference that happens upon thawing.
Do I have to add the Sweetened Sour Cream?
No, it is not mandatory, however, the extra layer of flavor that this provides is astonishing and will delight you! Besides it also covers the flaws or air bubbles that pop from the baking process.
