Filling

5 packs cream cheese (200 grm) room temperature 

1 pack sour cream (120 grm)

4 eggs 

100 grm sugar 

With paddle attachment whisk in low speed cream cheese until smooth, add sugar and sour cream, then eggs one by one just until mixed.

Pour in the crusted pan.

Bake in 200 degrees oven for 40 minutes.

Edges will likely have slightly puffed and may have just begun to turn a light golden brown and the center should spring back to the touch but will still be Jello-jiggly. Don't over-bake or the texture will suffer, which means we all suffer.

Remove from oven and allow to cool on top rack of the oven for 10 minutes. Let cool to room temperature. Enjoy.
