Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter until it resembles damp sand. This takes about 2 minutes.
  2. Evenly distribute the crumb mixture into the bottom of each jar and press down firmly to form a compact base.
  3. Beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until light and airy, about 1-2 minutes.
  5. Whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form, about 3-5 minutes.
  6. Gently fold whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined.
  7. Divide the cheesecake mixture into two bowls. Add food coloring to one bowl, and stir until blended.
  8. Layer the mixtures into the jars alternately, aiming for neat layers.
  9. Top with whipped cream, pastel candy eggs, and sprinkles.
  10. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.

Notes

For cleaner layers, using a piping bag can help. Remember to let the cream cheese soften completely before mixing to avoid lumps.
