Ingredients

For the crust:

  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 3 tablespoons butter melted

For the cheesecake filling:

  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 teaspoons lemon zest
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream

For fruit topping:

  • cup fresh blueberries
  • cup fresh strawberries diced
  • 3 tablespoons fruit jam or preserves
  • 1 tablespoon warm water

Instructions

  • Make the crust by mixing together melted butter and graham cracker crumbs. Divide evenly into 4 6-ounce jars or serving dishes. Press to form the crust.
  • Add softened cream cheese and powdered sugar to a large bowl. Use a hand mixer to combine until the powdered sugar is well incorporated and no lumps appear.
  • Add vanilla extract and lemon zest and mix until just combined.
  • Pour 1 cup heavy cream into a large bowl or a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment. Whisk until stiff peaks form, careful not to overmix.
  • Use a spatula to fold half of the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture. Once incorporated, add the second half of the whipped cream and fold together until smooth.
  • Transfer cream cheese mixture into a large piping bag or zip-top bag. Snip the edge and top the graham cracker crusts with cheesecake filling.
  • Cover and let set in the refrigerator for an hour, up to overnight.

Make the fruit topping:

  • Add 3 tablespoons mixed fruit jam or preserves to a small bowl and whisk in 1 tablespoon water to create a glaze.
  • Toss in fresh blueberries and diced strawberries until coated. Spoon jam-coated fruit onto set cheesecakes and serve.
