Make Crust:
Cool slightly. Divide crumb mixture into four 6-ounce glass custard cups and pat down.
Make Filling and Assembly:
Divide evenly over crumb mixture. Tap the bottom of the cups on the counter to level cheese mixture.
Place cups in a circle on a micro-safe rack or inverted dish. Microwave uncovered on MEDIUM (50%) for 4 to 5 minutes, until barely set. Mixture will jiggle slightly but will firm up as it cools.
Place directly on the counter top and let cool. Top with a spoonful of your favorite jam. Refrigerate.

Blend cream cheese with sugar. Beat in egg and lemon juice; blend until smooth.
