  2. In a bowl, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form, then fold it into the cream cheese mixture. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  3. In a saucepan, combine strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice over medium heat. Simmer for 5-7 minutes. Mix cornstarch with water, add to the mixture, and cook until thickened. Cool completely.
  4. Fill each cooled taco shell with cheesecake mixture using a piping bag or spoon. Drizzle with cooled strawberry sauce and serve immediately.
