Crush 20 sheets of graham crackers (or 40 squares) in a food processor or a plastic bag until they resemble wet sand.

Add 2 tablespoons of sugar to the crushed graham crackers and mix in the melted butter.

Press the mixture into a 9-inch springform pan to form the crust and freeze for at least 10 minutes.

Beat 16 ounces of softened cream cheese in a bowl using a hand mixer or stand mixer until smooth.

Add 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 1 can (14 ounces) of sweetened condensed milk gradually while mixing until smooth.

Pour the cream cheese mixture into the crust and smooth it out.

Refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours or until set before removing from the springform pan.
