Pour filling into prepared pan. Bake 10 minutes. Lower oven temperature to 250F. Bake 1 hour longer or until center is set but not firm. Remove to rack; cool 2 hours. With back of spoon, spread sour cream evenly over top of cake to within 1/2 inch of edge. Refrigerate 3 hours or overnight.

In food processor, puree raspberries with their syrup; pour through sieve placed over medium sized saucepan. Discard seeds. Mix cornstarch with puree until blended. Bring to boiling, stirring constantly; simmer
