Start by preparing the base: Place the gluten-free graham crackers into a food processor and blend until they become fine crumbs.
Melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat or in the microwave.
Mix the melted butter with the graham cracker crumbs until well combined.
Press the crumb mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to create the crust. Use the back of a spoon to smooth it out. Place the crust in the refrigerator to chill.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese. Mix until well incorporated.
Gently fold in the lemon juice.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until it reaches stiff peaks.
Carefully fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined, ensuring not to deflate the whipped cream.
Remove the crust from the refrigerator and pour the cream cheese filling onto the crust. Spread the filling evenly with a spatula.
Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours, or until firm. For best results, allow it to chill overnight.
Once set, release the cheesecake from the springform pan and transfer it to a serving plate.
Before serving, top with fresh berries if desired. Slice and enjoy your gluten-free no-bake cheesecake!
