Make the filling
- Wash strawberries thoroughly. Discard stems and leaves, and dry them on a paper towel.
- Place the strawberries in a blender and purée until smooth.
- Strain the mixture through a sieve and add what’s left back into the blender.
- Add the sweetener and cream cheese and blend until smooth. Next, add the sour cream, vanilla, and lemon juice and blend again until smooth.
- Beat the heavy cream in a separate bowl with a mixer. Beat until stiff peaks begin to form. Mix the strawberry filling into the heavy cream.
Assemble the cheesecake
- Remove the chilled crust from the freezer and pour the cake mix over it. Cover with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for at least 5 hours (or overnight).
Decorate and serve
- Once firm, run a knife along the edges of the springform pan to loosen the cake from the sides. Once the cake has been detached, you may open the springform pan and remove it.
- Garnish with fresh strawberries if desired and serve.
