4. Stir in the vanilla extract and lemon juice.
5. In a separate chilled bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form.
6. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using a rubber spatula, maintaining as much air as possible.
7. Pour the filling over the prepared crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
8. In a medium saucepan, simmer sliced strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice until berries soften.
9. Mix cornstarch with water to create a slurry, stir into the strawberry mixture, and simmer until thickened.
10. Allow the glaze to cool slightly, then pour over the cheesecake layer.
11. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before slicing and serving.
