Baking Supplies

Parchment paper
20 cm round cake pan (about 8 inches)

Instructions

Step 1

Preparing the Cheesecake Mixture

Begin by placing *all the filling ingredients* into a blender. This includes the mango, cream cheese, heavy cream, sugar, vanilla sugar, flour, salt, and eggs.

Blend the mixture until it is *completely smooth and homogenous*. This step is crucial for a silky texture in your cheesecake.

Step 2

Preparing the Cake Pan

Take your 20 cm round cake pan and line it with *two layers of parchment paper*. This will help prevent the cheesecake from sticking to the pan during baking.

Make sure the paper fits well, allowing it to hang slightly over the edges for easy removal later.

Step 3

Baking the Cheesecake

Pour the cheesecake mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it out evenly.

Preheat your oven to *200 degrees Celsius (about 400 degrees Fahrenheit)* and then place the cheesecake in the oven.

Bake for *35-40 minutes* or until the top is beautifully golden and slightly puffed.

Step 4

Cooling and Setting

Once baked, remove the cheesecake from the oven and allow it to cool down to *room temperature*.

After cooling, transfer it to the *refrigerator to set for a minimum of 8 hours, preferably overnight.* This resting period is essential for developing the best flavors and achieving the perfect texture.

Servings

Serving this Mango Cheesecake is as delightful as baking it! Dress it up by drizzling some mango puree or topping it with fresh mango slices for an extra pop of color and flavor. 🍑🥭

Why not add a sprinkle of coconut flakes or a dollop of whipped cream on the side? It pairs beautifully with the richness of the cheesecake, creating a heavenly dessert experience that you and your guests will adore! 🌺✨

Equipment

20cm Cake Pan

Faq

  • What if I don’t have a blender?

    You can use a whisk or a hand mixer, but it may take a bit longer to achieve a smooth texture. Just make sure everything is combined well!

  • How can I tell when my cheesecake is done baking?

    A slight jiggle in the center is perfectly normal! It will firm up as it cools. If it's browning too quickly, cover it with foil.

  • Can I use other fruits instead of mango?

    Absolutely! Berries, peaches, or even mixed tropical fruits can work well. Adjust sweetness if needed!

  • How do I store leftover cheesecake?

    Wrap it well in plastic wrap or store in an airtight container in the fridge. It will last for about 4-5 days.

  • Can I freeze this cheesecake?

    Yes! Just make sure it's well-wrapped. Thaw it in the fridge overnight before serving again. It can last up to a month in the freezer.

  • How can I get perfectly smooth cheesecake edges?

    A hot knife can work wonders! Dip your knife in hot water, wipe it off, and slice for cleaner edges.
