  1. Preheat your oven to 160°C (325°F).
  1. In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and sugar until smooth, then add eggs one at a time mixing until just combined, then fold in sour cream.
  1. Pour the cheesecake batter over the chilled crust and bake for 30 minutes.
  1. Let the cheesecake cool completely, then chill for 1 hour.
  1. While cheesecake chills, whip cold heavy cream and sugar until stiff peaks form in one bowl, and whisk mascarpone until smooth in another bowl.
  1. Fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone in two batches and spread the mousse layer over the cooled cheesecake.
  1. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or preferably overnight.
