I just thought it was OK. Maybe my expectations were too high. It didn't crack, though, so that was a good tip!

This recipe is so super easy to make. I did in the prepared crusts that you get at the store and it worked great. My guests LOVED the cheesecake and I loved that is was so easy to make. I was hesitant about the sour cream topping but it was the perfect addition to an already yummy cheesecake.
