How to Make Mango Cheesecake
Making your own Mango Cheesecake is fun and easy! Here’s how you can do it:
Ingredients
Base:
- 125g digestive biscuits
- 90g unsalted butter, cubed and softened
Filling:
- 280g cream cheese
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- 250ml double cream
- 80g icing sugar
- 300g mango puree (made from fresh or canned mangoes)
- 2 gelatine sheets (or 1 tbsp powdered gelatine)
- 50ml water (for dissolving gelatine)
- Mango slices (for topping)
Directions
-
Start by making the base: Crush the digestive biscuits in a bowl until fine crumbs form. Mix the crumbs with the softened butter until well combined.
-
Press the biscuit mixture into the bottom of a springform pan to form an even layer. Chill in the refrigerator while preparing the filling.
-
For the filling, combine the cream cheese, lemon juice, icing sugar, and mango puree in a bowl. Whip the double cream separately until it forms soft peaks, then gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture.
-
If using gelatine sheets, soak them in cold water for 5 minutes. If using powdered gelatine, sprinkle it over water in a small bowl and let it sit until it blooms. Gently heat to dissolve the gelatine (do not boil).
-
Once the gelatine is dissolved, let it cool slightly, then mix it into the mango filling.
-
Pour the filling over the chilled biscuit base and smooth the top. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until set.
-
Before serving, top the cheesecake with fresh mango slices.

Tips to Make Mango Cheesecake
