What is better than a delicious, unique sweet treat on Valentine’s Day? A delicious, unique sweet treat you can make with friends.

JARS by Dani are our latest dessert obsession. Picture layers of eatable decadence delivered in a mason jar. And while these yummy treats are currently only available for delivery in Manhattan, Dani Beckerman, the brainchild behind JARS by Dani, gave us some tips on how to recreate her super Insta-worthy desserts with your besties from the comfort of your own dorm!

What You’ll Need:

1. Your favorite white cupcake recipe and its ingredients or a white cake box mix, plus cupcake pan

2. Food coloring

3. Biscuit cutter

4. White chocolate chips

5. Whipped cream

6. Sprinkles

Step 1:

Make white cupcakes according to any recipe or instructions on the box. Add food coloring to the batter to make any color cupcake you want. We made red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple cupcakes.

Step 2:

Use a biscuit cutter to punch a circle from the center of your cupcakes – put this in an individual shot glass and use your fingers to compress the cake.

Step 3:

Top with white chocolate chips, whipped cream (Dani uses pastry bags to apply evenly) and sprinkles.
