- 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened

- Prepare Cheesecake Filling: In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese with powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon zest until smooth and creamy.
- Assemble Sandwiches: Spread a generous layer of the cheesecake filling onto one side of each bread slice. Layer strawberry slices over half of the slices, then top with the remaining bread to form sandwiches.
