Work around sides of pan with fingers to make crumbs of even height. Any remaining crumbs can be added to bottom crust. Bake crust at 350 degrees for five minutes.

Turn into prepared crust. Protect exposed top edge of crust by folding strips of foil around the rim of the pan. Bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes. Cool 15 minutes. Remove foil.

Blend sour cream, sugar, vanilla and Grand Marnier well, then pour over filling and bake at 475 degrees for 5 minutes. Cool cake and chill overnight before serving.
