Step-by-Step Directions:

Step 1: Start by melting the butter in a bowl using the microwave or stove—whichever you prefer! Mix in the graham cracker crumbs until the mixture resembles wet sand. Then, fill each with two teaspoons for the 5-fl oz jars and 1-1.5 Tbsp for the 3-fl oz jars. If you have extra crust, feel free to sprinkle it into the jars to medium heat-pro jar with a hearmaximize every tasty bite! Once done, set the jars aside.

Step 2: Using a fork, whip the cold milk with both packages of no-bake dessert mix on medium-high speed for 1-2 minutes. Add some of the filling to the crust in the 5-fl oz jars, use about ¼ cup of that wonderful filling, and for the 3-fl oz jars, aim for 5-6 tablespoons or as much as you can fit in! Remember to leave space for the tasty topping in the jars!

Tips:

You can enjoy the cheesecake jars at room temperature or chill them in the fridge for at least 30 minutes (up to 3 days if covered). For the best experience, add the topping just before serving or up to 2 hours in advance, as it may blend with the layers.
Cover and store leftover cheesecake jars in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Try using seedless raspberry jam.
