3. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of an 8-inch springform pan.

Filling:

1. In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth using an electric mixer.
2. Add in the sour cream and continue beating until well combined.
3. Gradually add the sugar while beating, ensuring it’s fully incorporated.
4. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, making sure each egg is fully mixed in before adding the cherry pie filling.

6. Add butterscotch sauce and butterscotch chips, stir until well blended. 

Assembly:

2. Smooth out the top with a spatula to ensure it’s even.

Baking:

1. Place the cheesecake in the preheated oven, with a pan of water placed on the rack below, and bake for 60 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly.
2. Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the door slightly ajar for about an hour to cool gradually.
3. Remove the cheesecake from the oven and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to allow it to set completely.
4. When you are ready to serve, top with cool whip. You can pipe swirls around the edge and fill the center with a heaping mound of cool whip and top with butterscotch sauce.
