3 tablespoon sugar
3 packages philadelphia cream cheese, softened
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla

Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 13x9-inch baking pan with foil, with ends of foil extending over sides of pan to form handles; set aside. Mix graham crumbs, butter and 3 Tbsp. sugar; press firmly onto bottom of 13x9-inch baking pan.
