HomeKreation Mango Cheesecake


I created the cheesecake filling recipe to serve for our small Hari Raya open house recently. We just returned from kampung with a bag of very sweet mango given by my husband's relatives. Coincidentally, I had a packet of cream cheese and also a packet of cream. I wanted the cheesecake to be rich with mango taste but couldn't find any cheesecake recipe that used pureed mango. Confidently, I created my own recipe based on my own imagination and appetite. The result is awesome...!!

Many of the guests asked for the recipe and here it is:

Made one 9" diameter
CRUST:
110g Butter
2 tbs Brown Sugar
200g Digestive Biscuits - crushed
50g Cornflakes - crushed coarsely
- Melt butter with brown sugar.
- Mix in rest of ingredients.
- Press into the cheesecake tin.
- Chill for at least 30 minutes.

FILLING:
1 block (250g) Cream Cheese
1/2 cup Castor Sugar
1 packet Cream (200ml)
1 cup Mango puree (used 2 large mangoes & my mangoes were very sweet)
1 tbsp Gelatine/Jelly powder - dilute in 1/4 cup water & heat up until melt

METHOD:
1. Cream cream cheese and sugar until smooth.
Add in cream & continue to beat until thicken.
Add in mango puree & stir well.
Add in gelatine/jelly mixture.

2. Pour into the chilled crust.
Chill overnight until set.

3. For topping, arrange mango slices on the cheesecake once it is set.
Mix 40ml apricot jam with 40ml hot water.
Brush the mango topping with apricot jam mixture.
Chill until set.
Serve chilled.

  2. Siti, kalau mango tu masam, leh tambahkan lebih gula ke dlm mango puri & kacau rasa sehingga kurang masam. Utk topping lak, tambah 1 tbs gula dlm apricot mixture tu - panaskan sehingga gula cair.

  4. Dear Anonymous, I've got the mangoes from kampung and not sure what type they are. They are very sweet and works well with this recipe.

  11. Dear Anonymous,
    Puree the mango using blender or food processor. No water or ice is necessary.

  12. Dear Anonymous,
    It does not matter what type of brown sugar. The idea is to give distinct flavour as opposed to white sugar. I used light brown sugar.
    I used Philadelphia cream cheese. I don't remember the brand for the cream as I do not stick to any particular brand. I simply use any that I can find on the supermarket shelve.
    I used castor sugar as stated in the recipe. You can buy this from any supermarket.
    Hope my answer helps. Good Luck.

  13. Hi,

    I'm not sure what kind of cream to use for the receipe.
    Did you use whipping cream that is liquid form or spray can type? or a can of cream for the receipe?
    Look forward to your kind reply.

  14. Hi JN,
    You can use any kind of liquid cream from can or packet (whipping or thicken cream) but not the spray type as that is too foamy to mix in.
