Start by preparing the cream cheese filling: In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
Gradually add powdered sugar, mixing until fully incorporated and smooth.
Mix in vanilla extract and heavy cream, and whip until the mixture becomes light and fluffy. Set aside in the refrigerator.
Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F). Place 12 rectangular graham crackers on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Melt the butter in a small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl and stir in the brown sugar. Brush this mixture evenly over the graham crackers.
Optional step for a crispy texture: Bake the crackers in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes until lightly golden and fragrant. Allow them to cool completely before assembling the sandwiches.
Once cooled, spread a generous amount of the prepared cream cheese filling on the bottom side of one graham cracker. Top with another graham cracker to make a sandwich, pressing gently to secure it.
Repeat with remaining graham crackers and filling until all sandwiches are assembled.
Optional serving suggestion: Drizzle honey over the top of each sandwich and serve with fresh berries or fruit compote on the side.
Chill the cheesecake sandwiches for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow them to firm up slightly.
