Place the graham crackers in a plastic bag and crush them into fine crumbs using a rolling pin or crushing tool. Mix the crumbs with melted butter until evenly coated and press about 1-2 cm of this mixture into the bottom of each jar to form a crust. Chill the jars in the fridge for 10 minutes to set the crust.
In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon juice, mixing until well combined and silky.
In a separate bowl, whip the chilled heavy cream until stiff peaks form—listen for the soft swish and see the cream hold its shape. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture in three additions, maintaining the light, airy texture.
Spoon or pipe the creamy filling into each jar, over the chilled crust, filling almost to the top and smoothing the surface with the back of a spoon.
Top each jar with fresh berries or your favorite fruit toppings for vibrant color and flavor. Cover the jars with lids or plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the flavors to meld and the filling to firm up.
Before serving, optionally garnish with additional berries or a sprig of mint. Serve chilled directly from the fridge for a refreshing, layered treat that feels personal and festive.
