heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

cream cheese

🥗Healthier: neufchâtel cheese

💰Cheaper: ricotta cheese

Neufchâtel cheese has lower fat content while ricotta is more affordable.

1

Combine graham cracker crumbs and brown sugar in a large bowl and mix until incorporated.

2

Add ground cinnamon to the mixture and mix well.

3

Pour in melted butter and mix until the butter is incorporated into the crumb mixture.

4

Take about two spoonfuls of the crust mixture and press it into the bottom of each jar, not too firmly.

5

Place the jars in the fridge to let the butter resolidify, or leave them out if you're in a hurry.

6

Use a hand mixer to cream the cream cheese until smooth.

7

Add lemon juice to the cream cheese and mix until combined.

8

Slowly add in the whipping cream while mixing until the mixture is thick and creamy.

9

Add the granulated sugar to the thickened mixture and mix until well combined.

10

Take the jars out of the fridge and spoon the cheesecake filling into each jar, pressing it down towards the sides for a neat appearance.

11

Top each jar with cherry pie filling or blueberry pie filling, or leave it plain if desired.

12

Leave some space at the top of the jar for the lid to screw on without squishing the filling.
