Equipment

  • 6 eight ounce Mason Jars or Trifle Bowl

Ingredients

  • 2 cups cinnamon graham crackers crushed (reserve 2 tablespoons for garnish)
  • 1 ½ cups butter melted
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 3 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla divided
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 cups fresh or frozen mixed berries

Instructions

Directions for the crust

  • Steps 1-2: In a microwave safe bowl, melt the butter. Add to the graham crackers and combine with a fork. Add 2-3 tablespoons of the mixture into each of the mason jars and press into the bottom of the jar.

Directions for the whipped topping

  • Steps 3-4: In a medium sized mixing bowl add the cream cheese, powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon of the vanilla. Using a hand or stand mixer, beat until light fluffy.
  • Steps 5-7: In a larger sized mixing bowl, add in the heavy cream and remaining vanilla and beat until stiff peaks form. Add in the cream cheese mixture and mix in on low speed until well incorporated.

Directions for layering

  • Steps 8-12: Make an assembly line station so you can easily layer your dessert jars. First, add a layer of the whipped topping to each jar. Next, add a layer of the fruit. Repeat with the graham crust, fruit and top with the whipped topping and sprinkle with a bit of the crushed graham crackers. Refrigerate until you are ready to serve!

Notes

You can make smaller servings by using 4 oz clear plastic cups.
