24 ounces cream cheese (3 large packages), softened
5 eggs
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla

Mix and bake at 300 degrees for 40 minutes.
There is enough batter for 24 cupcakes.

Meanwhile, mix together:

1 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla

Let cupcakes cool for 10 minutes, until tops indent.  Then
put 1 teaspoon of the sweetened sour cream mixture into
each indentation.  Put back into oven for 5 more minutes.
Remove, and garnish with 1/2 a red or green cherry.
Cool, store in refrigerator.

Very rich and festive!
