3 egg yolk
2 cups sour cream 16 oz
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
4 cups blackberries fresh or frozen, drained, divided
Whipped cream
In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar and baking powder. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in egg until dough forms a ball. Press onto the bottom and 2- in. up the sides of an ungreased 9-in springform pan. For filling, in a bowl beat the egg yolks, sour cream, sugar and vanilla just until combined. Sprinkle 2 cups blackberries over crust. Carefully pour sour cream mixture over berries. Bake at 325 degrees for 1 1/2 hours or until center is almost set. Cool on a wire rack (center will fall).

To prevent drips, place the pan on a shallow baking pan in oven.
