- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 8 oz whipped topping

Instructions
- Prepare the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine crushed graham crackers and melted butter. Mix well until the crumbs are evenly coated. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch pie dish or a springform pan to form the crust.
- Make the Filling: In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add sugar and continue to mix until well combined. Pour in vanilla extract and mix again. Gently fold in the whipped topping until everything is well blended and fluffy.
- Assemble the Cheesecake: Pour the cream cheese mixture over the prepared crust, spreading it evenly. Smooth the top with a spatula for a polished finish.
