Hello andirm71, Sorry about the confusion. I've updated the recipe to be more clear. Thanks

According to #5, I need to add vanilla, but on the ingredients it does not call for vanilla. Can you please tell me how much will I need? Thanks

Hi there, thanks so much for pointing this out -- I will be sure to fix the recipe so it reflects your feedback. Sorry for any ambiguity! Have a great day.

I'm guessing that 1/2 cup sugar goes with the crust. The other 1 cup of sugar goes with the cream cheese.
