Pumpkin Cheesecake with Sour Cream Topping image

Instead of a traditional pie, I like to surprise holiday guests with a silky cheesecake. Make it a day ahead and let it chill overnight. It's one less thing you'll have to make on the big day. -Dorothy Smith, El Dorado, Arkansas

This cheesecake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. The crust was flaky and the filling was creamy, but the sour cream topping was a bit too tangy for me.
