Make the filling:
In a blender or food processor, puree the strawberries until smooth. -
In a large bowl, whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
-
In a separate bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth, then gradually beat in sweetened condensed milk.

Fold the strawberry puree into the cream cheese mixture, then gently fold in whipped cream until combined.
-
Pour filling into the chilled crust and smooth the top.
-
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to set.
