My friend called me for a quick visit, and as I could remember, she is a big fan of cheesecakes, but I don't have enough time to make a big size mold and wait for it to cool, so I decided to make cheese cake in a jar, very fast, easy peasy recipe, lots of fun in the making and lots of different scrumptious flavors to meet everyone's taste. I used my cupcake cream cheese frosting recipe for this and it turned out super yum yum.
