Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Cheesecake Jars With Cottage Cheese
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine crushed graham crackers with melted butter, mixing thoroughly until the texture resembles wet sand. Spoon this mixture into the bottom of your jars, pressing down firmly to create an even layer. Set aside.
  2. In a blender, add the cottage cheese, fat-free cream cheese, vanilla-flavored protein powder, and sugar-free maple syrup. Blend on high until smooth and creamy.
  3. Carefully spoon the cheesecake filling into each jar over the prepared crust, spreading it evenly.
  4. Add your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruits or a spoonful of blueberry jam, on top of the filling for added flavor.
  5. Cover the jars and place them in the refrigerator. Chill for at least 2 hours before serving.
