• 1/3 cup melted butter
• 2 tablespoons sugar

For the filling:

• 2 (8-ounce) packages of cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup powdered sugar

• 1 cup heavy cream, whipped

Instructions:

1. Prepare the crust:

• In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar.
• Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to create an even crust.
• Place the pan in the refrigerator while you prepare the filling.

2. Make the filling:

• In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
• Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Beat until well combined and smooth.
• In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
• Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined.

3. Assemble the cheesecake:

• Take the prepared crust out of the refrigerator.
• Pour the cream cheese filling onto the crust, spreading it evenly.
• Smooth the top with a spatula.

4. Chill:

• Place the cheesecake in the refrigerator and let it chill for at least 4 hours or overnight to set.

5. Serve:

• Once the cheesecake is set, remove it from the springform pan.
• Optionally, you can top it with fresh fruit, fruit compote, or a drizzle of chocolate before serving.

Enjoy your delicious no-bake cheesecake.
