1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup butter. melted
2 tablespoons sugar
4 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened **
1/2 cup sugar
1 (12 oz) package frozen mixed berries, thawed and drained
1 (8 oz) tub Cool Whip, divided
** You could use Neufchatel cheese, which is lower in calories or maybe some of that lower fat cream cheese. Or a combination.
Line a 9 by 13 inch baking pan with foil, extending it over the sides of the pan. Make a crust of the graham cracker crumbs, butter, and sugar - combine and press firmly into the bottom of the pan, and refrigerate it. Beat the cream cheese and 1/2 cup sugar in a large bowl at medium speed until well blended. Smash the berries with a fork and stir into the cream cheese. Gently stir in 2 cups of the Cool Whip. Spoon over the crust and cover. Refrigerate for 4 hours or until firm. Use the foil handles to remove the cheesecake from the pan. Cut into pieces to serve and top each serving with the remaining whipped topping. Store leftover cheesecake in the refrigerator.

This sounds easy to make and like a fun party dish. It sounds like an all or nothing deal, meant to be taken out of the pan and eaten all at once. Seems like if you tried to cut it into pieces in the pan the foil would get cut and get in the way.
