Cream Cheese Pie with Sour Cream Topping image

My mom used to make this recipe in the 60's everytime she had company. It was one of her most requested recipes. It is so delicious, and easy to make, that I always make 2 of them when I have my family over for Christmas Dinner. There are never any leftovers!
