½ cup sugar
1 stick of butter (not margarine)

Directions: |
Directions:Let eggs and cream cheese reach room temperature. Mix cream cheese until blended, add sugar and mix until sugar dissolved, add eggs, vanilla, cornstarch and sour cream, mix just until blended in. Pour into spring form pan over crust. I use a 9 or 10 inch spring form pan.
Bake in preheated oven @ 450 º for 10 minutes then reduce heat in oven to 200 º for 45 minutes. Turn oven off, crack door of oven and leave cake in oven to cool (about 3 hours) to prevent cake from cracking. After completely cool, refrigerate until ready to serve. |

Notes: It is important to let cake cool completely in oven and can leave in oven cooling overnight if baked in the evening and refrigerate next morning. Cake can be made a couple of days ahead and kept in refrigerator. If you are covering cake with plastic or tinfoil, I lay a paper towel over the bowl first being careful not to let it fall on cake, this keeps the moisture drops that form on the cover from falling on cake.
Cake can be served plain or with strawberry, cherry, blueberry or your favorite filling.
