extract and beat just until blended. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating just
until blended after each addition. Add whipping cream and beat until
smooth. Stir in peanut butter cup pieces.
Pour filling into crust. Bake until sides of cake are set but center still

FOR TOPPING: Blend sour cream, sugar and vanilla extract in medium bowl.
Carefully spoon topping over cheesecake. Return cheesecake to oven and

Cool cheesecake in pan on rack. Run small sharp knife around edge of
cheesecake to loosen. Cover and refrigerate overnight. (Can be prepared 3
days ahead. Keep refrigerated.) Release pan sides. Let stand 20 minutes
at room temperature before serving.
