Filling - Divide the cheesecake mixture between the prepared jars or bowls, making sure to leave enough room for the fruit filling and garnishes. Level the mixture with a spoon.
Chill - Once you've filled all of the jars, it's time to let them set in the refrigerator for at least two hours or until firm.
Top - When you're ready to serve, remove the jars from the refrigerator and add your favorite pie fruit filling or toppings. Today, I have used strawberry pie filling, Blueberry pie filling, and crumble to top my cheesecake jars.
