Strawberry Cheesecake Filling Procedure:
Preheat oven to 325°F.
Puree strawberries in a food processor.
Set aside.
Combine cream cheese, sugar, lemon juice and vanilla extract in a large bowl.
Beat with an electric mixer at low speed until combined, and then increase mixer speed to medium.
Beat until batter is very smooth, about 5 minutes, scraping the sides of the bowl occasionally.
Sift the flour into the cream cheese mixture and beat until fully combined.
Add eggs, one at a time, beating until mixture is smooth.
Slowly add reserved strawberry puree, red food coloring and heavy cream, and beat until mixture is completely combined.
Scrape the sides of the bowl to ensure the batter is mixed well.
Pour batter into prepared crust, smoothing the top.
Bake until cheesecake is set, but still wobbles slightly, about 55 minutes to 1 hour.
Cool in pan on a wire rack for 2 hours, then refrigerate overnight.
Dip a long, thin knife in hot water, and run it along the sides of the cheesecake to loosen it from the pan.
Carefully remove the ring.
