- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add in granulated sugar, heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until well combined and fluffy.
- Pour the cream cheese mixture over the prepared crust and spread evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the filling is set in the center. Remove from the oven and allow to cool.
