Method
For crust, finely crush graham crackers and combine with butter, sugar and cinnamon. Press onto bottom of a 9x13-inch glass Pyrex dish; set aside. For filling, beat together cream cheese, the 1 cup sugar, and vanilla. Add eggs, one at a time, beating at low speed just until combined. Pour into crust-lined dish. Bake at 350 degrees about 25 minutes or until filling is just set. For topping, stir together sour cream, 1/4 cup sugar and vanilla. Spread over filling and bake 5 minutes more. Cool, then chill. To serve, cut into squares and top with fresh strawberries sweetened with a little sugar.
