- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream

Instructions
- Prepare the Crust: In a bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar until combined. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form an even layer.
- Make the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined.
- Whip the Cream: In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated.
- Combine and Chill: Pour the cheesecake filling over the prepared crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set.
- Serve: Once set, remove the cheesecake from the springform pan. Top with fresh fruit or chocolate sauce if desired. Slice and enjoy!
