RECIPE

Graham Cracker Crust

1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs

1/4 cup butter; melted

1/4 cup sugar


Cheesecake

1/2 cup granulated sugar

zest of one lemon

2 packages cream cheese, 8 oz each; room temperature

2 large eggs; room temperature

1⁄4 cup heavy cream

1 1⁄2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract


Garnish

1 cup berries of your choice


STEPS

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F; boil a large pot of water for the water bath.

Mix graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar together in a bowl. Press the graham cracker mixture into the bottom of each jar with a muddler or the backside of wooden spoon.

In the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with your paddle attachment, combine the sugar and lemon zest and mix until the sugar is fragrant (Building Flavor!). Add in the cream cheese and paddle together until smooth. (You can also use a hand mixer)

Add eggs, one at a time, fully incorporating each before adding the next. Make sure to scrape down the bowl in between each egg. Add heavy cream and vanilla and mix until smooth.

Pour/Scoop/Pipe batter into jars until about 3⁄4 of the way full. Place jars into a larger pan and pour boiling water into the larger pan until halfway up the sides of the jars.

Bake 20 to 30 minutes (depending on the size of jars), the edges will appear to be set, but the center will still have a little jiggle to it.

Carefully remove the cheesecake jars from the water bath and place on a cooling rack to cool completely. Once the cheesecakes are completely cooled, place them into the refrigerator for at least 5 hours.

Top will fresh berries and serve.
