Notes
- Use store-bought graham cracker crumbs to skip a step.
- If you're like me and love the crust, feel free to add a thicker layer...it’s the best part!
- Gently fold the Cool Whip into the cream cheese mixture using a whisk to maintain that light, airy texture.
- Use a plastic baggie as a makeshift piping bag for cleaner, more precise layers inside your mason jars.
