Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the springform pan to form the crust.

In a bowl, mix the cream cheese until smooth and creamy.

Add the sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese, mixing until well combined.

Dissolve the gelatin in warm water according to package instructions.

Mix the dissolved gelatin into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated.

In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.

Add lemon juice to the mixture and fold gently to combine.

Pour the filling over the prepared crust in the springform pan.

Smooth the top with a spatula and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set.

Once set, carefully remove the sides of the springform pan.

Top with your choice of fruit topping and garnish with mint leaves before serving.
