stir and to make sure it doesn't burn. Set aside. In a large bowl, beat cream
cheese, sugar vanilla extract, and lemon juice until smooth. Add eggs, 1 at a
time, beating just until combined. Beat in white chocolate. Spoon half the
batter into the crust. Top with berries. Top with remaining batter. Bake until
cake is set around the edges, but center jiggles slightly (45 minutes). Let cool
(20 minutes).
For the Topping:
In a medium bowl, whisk sour cream, sugar, and vanilla. Spoon over cake,
spreading to the edge of the pan. Bake 5 minutes. Allow cake to cool and
refrigerate overnight. Serve plain or garnish with more berries.
