2 tbsp water
3 tsp refined sugar
Preparation || How to prepare mango cheese cake:

Put the mango pieces in a blender and prepare a mango puree.
Take a tablespoon of unflavored gelatin and combined it with 2 tablespoon of water and give it a mix
till it combines well.Add gelatin to mango puree .
Now add 3 to 4 teaspoon of refined sugar as per the sweetness to the mango puree and stir it once again.
Bottom layer :
To prepare a base ,add crushed biscuits (hide seek) or crushed chocos in a bowl
and add 4 tablespoon of melted butter to it and mix everything together with the help of spatula untill you get a wet sandy mixture form.
Now distribute the crushed biscuits to the baking pan.
Middle layer :
Take 8 pieces of cheese cubes and add 3/4 cup of refined sugar as well as 3 teaspoon of vanilla extract
to it and whisk it well to form a cream (You need to whisk for 10 – 15 minutes ).
Once a nice creamy cheese is form , add 200 gm of whipped cream to the mixture and whisk it again
(you can either use electric whisker or you can do it manually)
To prepare the Cake
Now spoon the creamy cheese mixture over the biscuit layer(bottom layer) and fill the pan untill it covers 3/4 of it.
Next pour the mango puree over the top and spread it evenly.
Chill in the set cake in the fridge overnight or you can set it for 6-8 hours
Once the cake is nicely set , remove it gently from the baking pan and you can decorate it with
any design or message you like to.
Once done , you are ready to serve this yummy delicious mango cheesecake 🙂
Note : Removing the cheesecake from the pan is a bit tricky and a tedious job if you have no right equipment’s.
I went through a challenge while setting and taking it out from the pan as I had no detachable pan. hence i suggest if making the cheese cake for the first time, then i would suggest you to use glasses or bowls,
so that you can just make the layers in them. The mango cheesecake served in individual bowls or glasses, looks pleasing as well as easy to serve.
