1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup (60ml) heavy cream

Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.

- Gently fold in the finely chopped fresh strawberries.
- In another bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated.
