Step-by-Step Instructions
First, start by preparing your crust. In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed graham crackers and melted butter until it resembles wet sand. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of your molds or springform pans to form a nice base. Next, in a separate bowl, beat together the cream cheese, melted white chocolate, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. It should smell divine right about now! Pour this filling over the crust and smooth it out. (See the next page below to continue steps…)
