Strawberry Kiwi Coconut Cheesecake


Ingredients:
(crust)
2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1 stick/4 oz butter, melted
2 tbsp. sugar
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/2 cup of sweetened flaked coconut
(cheesecake)
3 sticks of cream cheese, 8 oz each (room temperature)
1 cup sugar
3 large eggs
1 cup/8 oz heavy cream
1 tbsp. lemon juice or 1 tbsp. lime juice
1 tbsp. vanilla extract
1/2 cup coconut milk
1 tbsp liqueur
(Strawberry Layer)
2 cups fresh strawberries, washed and sliced
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon lime juice
Cook down until reduced by half. Cool.
(Kiwi Layer)
1 cup sliced kiwi
1 tablespoon lime juice
1/4 c. sugar
Cook down until reduced by half. Cool.

Directions:
I had enough filling for approximately 7 jars. I had enough batter and crust for a total of 10 jars. I made a mango/strawberry layer for the remaining jars. I baked the jars for 30 minutes at 275 degrees in a water bath, then let them cool down in the oven for an hour.
