Remove the cream cheese from the refrigerator and let it soften at room temperature for about 10-15 minutes.
In a medium mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese and beat again until fully combined.
In a separate chilled bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream on medium-high speed until medium-stiff peaks form. This will take about 3-4 minutes.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using a spatula. Do this in thirds to maintain the airy texture.
Add the lemon juice and fold gently to incorporate. Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness or tartness if desired.
Spoon the cheesecake cream into serving dishes or bowls. Optionally, crush graham crackers and sprinkle them on top for a crunch, and garnish with fresh fruit like berries or mango slices for extra flavor.
Serve immediately, or refrigerate for up to 4 hours to chill and firm up slightly before serving.
