Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium bowl, combine the crushed graham crackers, melted butter, and granulated sugar until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Press the graham cracker mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9x9-inch baking dish. Use the back of a spoon to pack it firmly.
Bake the crust for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and allow it to cool completely.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form, then gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture.
Spread the creamy mixture evenly over the cooled crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
In another bowl, combine the halved red and green grapes with the honey, mixing to evenly coat the grapes with the honey.
Scatter the honey-coated grape halves over the cream layer, arranging them in an even layer for a decorative look.
Refrigerate the dish for at least 3 hours or until set before slicing into squares.
Serve chilled and enjoy!
