For a richer flavor, use full-fat cream cheese and sour cream. If you prefer a less sweet cheesecake, reduce the sugar to 3/4 cup. To add a touch of elegance, garnish the finished cheesecake with fresh berries, a drizzle of chocolate sauce, or a sprinkle of graham cracker crumbs.

In a large bowl, gently fold together the whipped topping, sour cream, sugar, and vanilla extract until just blended. Be careful not to overmix. (5 minutes)
02
Step
1 mins
Arrange the cream cheese pieces on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave on Medium power in 30-second intervals until the cream cheese is softened and warm, approximately 1 minute. Ensure it is softened, but not melted.
03
Step
2 mins
Using an electric mixer on medium speed, gradually incorporate the softened cream cheese into the whipped topping mixture. Beat until the mixture is light, fluffy, and completely smooth, about 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed to ensure even mixing.

Carefully pour the cheesecake filling into the prepared graham cracker crust. Use a spatula or the back of a spoon to evenly smooth the top.

Cover the cheesecake with plastic wrap, pressing gently on the surface to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate for at least 4 to 5 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the cheesecake to fully set.
