4 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 (6 ounces) prepared chocolate crumb crust

Directions:
BEAT 1 1/2 cups whipping cream with electric mixer until it starts to form peaks. Add powdered sugar, slowly beating until incorporated. Stop mixer and scrape down sides if necessary. Pour whipped cream into a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Place in refrigerator.
