1
Prepare the crust
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Mix until all the crumbs are evenly coated with butter.
2
Form the crust
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch pie pan or a springform pan to form an even layer. Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let it cool.

3
Mix the filling
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
4
Add the cream
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated.
5
Assemble the filling
Pour the cream cheese filling over the cooled crust and smooth the top with a spatula. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set.

6
Prepare the topping
Once the filling is set, arrange the sliced strawberries on top of the cheesecake filling. Dollop the whipped cream around the strawberries or on top as desired.
