Start by making base and top of graham crackers. Mix graham crackers with melted butter and sugar until it is incorporated, then make the filling. Beat softened cream cheese until it becomes smooth, then add sweetened condensed milk and vanilla and beat some more until it´s combined. Next, add whipping cream and beat until soft peaks form and finally fold in sprinkles. Spray a 9 x 13-inch pan with non-stick spray and spread 1/2 graham cracker crumbs on bottom and press, with your hands or some solid object.

- This dessert can be prepared for 4th July or a birthday, just use sprinkles in appropriate colors.
- Can I use light cream cheese, instead? Yes, you can.
- Can I use whipping toping instead of whipping cream – Yes, you can. A packet of 8 Oz will do.
