Prepare the Crust:
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar.
Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and the mixture resembles wet sand.
Press half of the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish to form the base layer. Set aside the remaining half for the top layer.
Prepare the Filling:
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and continue beating until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated.

Chill:
Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow the cake to set and the flavors to meld.
