In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter.
Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan, creating an even crust.
Place the pan in the refrigerator to set while you prepare the filling.
In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until it's smooth and creamy.
Add granulated sugar and vanilla extract. Continue mixing until the sugar is fully incorporated.
In another bowl, whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until it's well combined.
Remove the crust from the refrigerator.
Pour the cream cheese mixture onto the crust, spreading it evenly.
Smooth the top with a spatula.
Place the cheesecake in the refrigerator and let it set for at least 4 hours or, ideally, overnight.
Once the cheesecake has set, carefully remove it from the springform pan.
Top it with fresh berries or fruit compote for a burst of color and flavor.
Slice and serve your delightful Classic No-Bake Vanilla Cheesecake.
