Step 3: Create the Crust Layer
In a bowl, mix the crushed graham crackers with light butter or applesauce until the texture is slightly moist and holds when pressed.
Divide the crust mixture evenly among six small jars (like 4-oz mason jars or ramekins), pressing lightly into the bottom.
Step 4: Layer the Jars
First layer: Add about 1–2 tablespoons of the graham cracker crust to the bottom of each jar.
Second layer: Spoon or pipe the cheesecake mixture over the crust. Smooth the top.
Third layer: Add 1–2 tablespoons of strawberry compote on top of the cheesecake layer.
Optional: Add another thin layer of cheesecake or compote, depending on your jar size.
Step 5: Chill and Serve
Seal the jars with lids or cover with plastic wrap.
Refrigerate for at least 2–3 hours, or overnight for best texture.
When ready to serve, top with a swirl of light whipped cream, a fresh strawberry slice, or a mint leaf for a beautiful finish.
