Ingredients
  

  • 200 g graham cracker crumbs
  • 100 g unsalted butter, melted
  • 750 g cream cheese, softened to room temperature
  • 200 g granulated white sugar
  • 3 large egg s
  • 250 ml fresh mango puree, divided
  • 120 ml sour cream
  • 15 ml lemon juice
  • 5 ml vanilla extract
  • 7 g unflavored powdered gelatin
  • 30 ml cold water

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 160C (325F) and grease the base and sides of a 9-inch (23cm) springform pan.
  • Combine graham cracker crumbs and melted butter in a bowl; press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan.
  • Bake the crust for 10 minutes, then remove from oven and allow to cool completely while preparing the filling.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar until smooth and aerated.
  • Add eggs one at a time, beating on low speed after each addition until just combined to avoid over-incorporating air.
  • Fold in 150ml of the mango puree, sour cream, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until the mixture is homogenous.
  • Pour the cream cheese batter over the cooled crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
  • Bake for 55 to 60 minutes until the edges are set and slightly golden, but the center still has a slight wobble.
  • Turn off the oven and leave the door slightly ajar; let the cheesecake cool inside for 60 minutes to prevent cracking.
  • Prepare the glaze by blooming gelatin in cold water for 5 minutes, then melting it gently and stirring into the remaining 100ml of mango puree.
  • Spread the mango glaze evenly over the top of the cooled cheesecake.
  • Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 6 hours, or ideally overnight, before releasing from the springform pan and serving.
