Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Combine the chocolate wafer crumbs and butter, mixing well; firmly press into the bottom and 1-inch up the sides of a 9-inch springform pan.

Beat the cream cheese at low speed with the electric mixer until light and fluffy; gradually add the sugar, mixing well. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the kirsch or other cherry-flavored liqueur, and mix until well blended. Pour into the prepared pan. Bake for 1 hour. Cool to room temperature on a wire rack.

Place the semisweet chocolate in the top of a double boiler; bring water to a boil. Reduce heat to low; cook until the chocolate melts. Cool slightly. Stir in the sour cream. Spread the chocolate mixture evenly over the top. Chill thoroughly. Garnish with the whipped cream and maraschino cherries.
