- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 2 cups sliced fresh strawberries
- Line a 9×13 inch baking dish with plastic wrap, leaving an overhang on all sides.
- Arrange a single layer of graham crackers on the bottom of the dish.
- In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- In a separate large bowl, whip the heavy cream and granulated sugar until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the cream cheese mixture into the whipped cream.
- Spread half of the cream mixture evenly over the graham crackers.

Notes
- For a firmer cake, use whipped topping instead of heavy cream.
- Ensure your strawberries are not overly ripe to prevent excess moisture.
- This dessert can be assembled up to 24 hours in advance.
