Ingredients
For the Crust
- 2 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs, about 18 full size crackers
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
For the Cheesecake
- 3 packages cream cheese (8 ounce each) softened

Instructions
- Line a 13x9 baking dish with foil (or parchment paper). Set aside. (see notes below).
- To make the crust, add graham crackers and sugar to a food processor. Pulse until fine crumbs. Add in melted butter and process a couple times until blended.
- Pour crumbs into the bottom of the 13x9 and press firmly into the bottom (use a cup or heel of your hand). Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese with sweetened condensed milk and lemon juice for several minutes until smooth and fluffy.
- Fold in Cool Whip with a spatula, then pour cheesecake filling over the graham cracker crumb layer. Spread evenly and smooth tops.
- Cover cheesecake with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 3 hours or overnight.
- When ready to serve, top with extra Cool Whip, fresh berries, caramel sauce, or chocolate syrup.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- If you want to serve your bars straight from the dish, no need to line it with foil or parchment paper. If you prefer to remove them from the pan and cut into bars, foil or parchment work great.
- You can swap out the graham cracker crumbs for Nilla Wafers, Golden Oreos, Gingersnaps, or any other cookie.
- Swap out the Cool whip for our homemade stabilized whipped cream if preferred.
- Store cheesecake in refrigerator for up to 4 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
