Instant Pot Cheesecake with Sour Cream Topping. A sweet layer of sour cream topping covers this simple pressure cooker cheesecake. I was asked by a commenter if I had a sour cream topping for cheesecake. I didn’t, but after a little research, I was able to find one that works with pressure cooker cheesecake.

In a bowl mix together a can of tomato sauce with brown sugar. Whisk until incorporated, set to the side. Rinse and chop the potatoes. Place in the Instant Pot along with garlic cloves, water, and salt. Place a metal rack on top of the potatoes making it as even as possible. Create an aluminum foil pan and place on top of the rack.
