1-1/2 tsp. Ground Cinnamon, divided
3 pkgs. Cream Cheese, softened
1 tsp. Vanilla

Beat cream cheese,vanilla & remaining sugar & cinnamon in large bowl until well-blended.  Add sour cream and mix well.  Add eggs 1 at a time and beat until just well blended (you don't want a merengue!), stir in carrots and spread over crust.
