In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until creamy. Gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until silky.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form, then add powdered sugar and continue whipping until stiff peaks occur.
Fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well combined and fluffy.
Pour the cheesecake filling over the crust, smooth the top, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours until set.
In a small bowl, combine the strawberries and strawberry preserves, let soak for 15 minutes.
Once set, remove the cheesecake from the refrigerator, top with strawberries, cut into squares and serve.
