# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • Each person gets their own adorable portion so no fighting over the last slice
  • The hidden eggs make every spoonful feel like discovering a tiny treasure
02 -
  • The jars need those full two hours of chilling time or the layers will slide around when you try to eat them
  • Press the crust down firmly enough that it forms a solid base but do not pack it so tight that it becomes impossible to spoon through
03 -
  • Use a clean damp paper towel to wipe any smeared filling off the inside of the jars before chilling
  • Room temperature ingredients blend together so much faster and more smoothly
