No more buying sour cream for me! This is SO simple and so yummy! I found if I leave it out for 24 hours, it's just slightly sort of "snotty" in texture. So, I left it out for about a day and a half and that did the trick! No one can believe I make my own sour cream, but they don't know they're fools for not because it's so easy and cheap!
