1
Make the crust
In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are well-coated.
2
Form the crust
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch pie dish or tart pan to create an even layer. Set aside.

3
Prepare the filling
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and continue mixing until well combined.
4
Add flavor
Stir in the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
5
Whip the cream
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until no streaks remain.
6
Fill the crust
Pour the filling into the prepared crust and spread it evenly. Smooth the top with a spatula.

7
Add topping
Arrange the sliced strawberries on top of the filling in a decorative pattern. Garnish with mint leaves.

Chill
Refrigerate the dessert for at least 4 hours, or until set.
