About Mango Cheesecake
When mangos are in season, mango cheesecake is a perfect treat to make. Though canned mango pulp works great for convenience, fresh mangoes give the cheesecake a lively taste. This dish is ideal for hot summer days because it’s easy to prepare and doesn’t need the use of an oven.
Why choose a no-bake mango cheesecake?
There are several reasons why this eggless no-bake mango cheesecake recipe is a must-try:
- Ease of Preparation: No need to fuss with baking or worrying about getting the perfect texture. This no-bake recipe ensures a smooth, creamy cheesecake every time.
- Vegetarian-Friendly: By using agar-agar or China grass instead of gelatine, you can make this dessert completely vegetarian.
- Delightful Flavours: The combination of fresh mango puree and rich cream cheese creates a taste sensation that is both refreshing and indulgent.
Ingredients:
For the crust:
- 1 1/2 cups digestive biscuits or graham crackers, crushed
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
For the cheesecake filling:
- 2 cups cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 cup mango puree (fresh or canned)
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
For the mango layer:
- 1 cup mango puree
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 teaspoons gelatin (or agar-agar for a vegetarian option)
- 1/4 cup water
Instructions to make Mango Cheesecake:
Step 1: Preparing the Crust
- Crush the digestive biscuits or graham crackers into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a ziplock bag and crushing them with a rolling pin.
- In a bowl, combine the biscuit crumbs with the melted butter until well-mixed.
- Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form an even layer.
- Refrigerate the crust while you prepare the filling.
Step 2: Making the Cheesecake Filling
- Cream cheese should be smooth and creamy after being beaten in a big basin.
- Beat in the vanilla essence and powdered sugar until thoroughly blended.
- Beat the heavy cream in a separate dish until firm peaks form.
- Till everything is completely blended, gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.
- As directed on the container, dissolve the gelatin or agar-agar in a small amount of boiling water. Allow it to cool somewhat before combining it with the cheesecake filling.
- Add the pureed mango and stir until the filling is well combined and smooth.
Step 3: Preparing the Mango Layer
- In a small saucepan, combine the mango puree and sugar.
- Dissolve the gelatin or agar-agar in 1/4 cup of water, then add it to the saucepan.
- Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly until the gelatin or agar-agar is completely dissolved.
- Remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature.
Step 4: Assembling the Cheesecake
- Using a spatula to distribute the filling evenly, pour the cheesecake mixture over the prepared crust.
- Gently cover the cheesecake filling with the cooled mango layer.
- Make sure the mango layer is evenly distributed throughout the surface by using a spatula.
Step 5: Chilling the Cheesecake
- Place plastic wrap over the cheesecake and place it in the refrigerator to set it, for at least 4 hours. Best served chilled overnight.
- Before serving, carefully remove the springform pan and run a knife along the edge of the cheesecake to release it from the pan.
Substitution of Ingredients
To achieve the perfect texture and flavour, this recipe uses gelatin to set the mango layer. However, if you prefer a vegetarian option, you can substitute gelatin with agar-agar or China grass. These alternatives work just as effectively, allowing you to enjoy a guilt-free dessert.
Tips and Variations
- Fresh vs. Canned Mango: Mango puree in a can is a handy substitute for fresh mangos, but fresh mangoes have the finest flavour.
- Vegetarian Option: Agar-agar sets the layers exactly as well as gelatin and is an excellent vegetarian alternative.
- Texture: Stir in tiny chunks of fresh mango into the cheesecake mixture for a chunkier texture.
- Serving Size: You may double this recipe for a bigger party or divide it for a smaller cheesecake.
Serving Suggestions
After the cheesecake is completely set, take it out of the springform pan and place it on a serving platter. Cut into slices and present cold. For an added flavour boost, this mango cheesecake goes great with a side of fresh mango slices or a dab of whipped cream.
