Method
Preparation
- In a medium bowl, mix together the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter until it resembles wet sand. Press this mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.
- Beat the softened cream cheese until creamy and smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
- In another bowl, whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks. Fold this whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well combined.
- Gently fold in the fresh mango puree into the cream cheese mixture, being careful not to deflate the whipped cream.
- Pour the mango filling onto the prepared crust and smooth the top. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Serving
- Once set, remove the sides of the springform pan and garnish with fresh mango slices and mint.
Notes
Can substitute mango puree with pineapple or passion fruit. For a touch of elegance, pipe whipped cream on top or drizzle melted chocolate. If the crust crumbles while serving, you can refer to it as 'cheesecake crumble'.
