Step‑By‑Step Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, salt, and melted butter. Stir until resembling wet sand. Divide among jar bottoms, pressing firmly.
- In a chilled mixing bowl, pour cold heavy whipping cream and whip on medium-high until medium-stiff peaks form, about 2-3 minutes. Set aside.
- In another bowl, beat together cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon juice until smooth and creamy.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the cheesecake filling in two additions, maintaining the airy texture.
- Optional: Divide filling into bowls, add gel food coloring, and mix until desired pastel shades are achieved.
- Using a piping bag or spoon, fill jars with cheesecake mixture over the crust, leaving space for toppings.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to 24 hours to set.
- Before serving, decorate with shredded coconut and mini chocolate eggs or jelly beans.
- Serve cold with small spoons. Enjoy!

Notes
Ensure cream cheese is softened for the best texture. Fold gently to maintain lightness and add toppings just before serving.
