To make the Crust
1
|
Mix together graham crumbs, melted butter, and sugar to make a crumbly mixture. Distribute evenly between 12 (125ml) glass jars and level to make an even crust. Refrigerate while making the filling.
To make the Filling
1
|
To a large bowl, add cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat with an electric handheld mixer on high speed until creamy. Add 1 cup of heavy whipping cream and continue beating until soft peaks form. Gently fold the coarsely crushed mini eggs until just distributed throughout the filling.

|
Scoop the filling evenly into the jars on top of the prepared crust and smooth the tops with a small spoon. Refrigerate while making the ganache.
To make the Ganache
1
|
Heat ⅓ cup of heavy whipping cream in the microwave in 30-second increments until scalding. Pour over the chopped milk chocolate and let sit for 2 minutes before whisking until smooth. Let cool for 10 minutes before distributing between all 12 cheesecakes on top of the cheesecake layer.

Refrigerate at least 1-2 hours or until ready to serve. Before serving, top with some whipped cream and a few extra mini eggs, if desired. Enjoy!

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Crush Mini Eggs Strategically 🥚Reserve some whole mini eggs for topping, but crush others into varying sizes for a more interesting texture and visual appeal in your cheesecake layers.
- Graham Cracker Crust Pro Tip 🍪For a crispier crust, toast the graham cracker crumbs in a dry skillet for 2-3 minutes before mixing with melted butter to enhance their nutty flavor and prevent sogginess.
- Cream Cheese Temperature Matters 🧀Let cream cheese sit at room temperature for 30-45 minutes before mixing to ensure a smooth, lump-free cheesecake filling with perfect consistency.
- Jar Layering Technique 🔬Use a piping bag or zip-lock bag with the corner cut off to create clean, precise layers in your mason jars, preventing messy and uneven filling.
- Chill for Maximum Set ❄️Refrigerate the cheesecakes for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to allow the filling to set completely and develop a richer, more developed flavor.
