Ingredients

For the Crust:

1 1/2 cups vanilla wafer cookies, crushed

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

For the Filling:

3 packages (8 oz each) cream cheese, softened

1 cup granulated sugar

1/4 cup all-purpose flour

4 large eggs

1/2 cup mango puree

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Pinch of salt

For the Topping:

1 cup mango puree

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1/2 teaspoon unflavored gelatin

Preparation

Prepare the Crust:

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium bowl, mix the crushed vanilla wafer cookies and melted butter until well combined. Press the cookie mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes and let cool.

Prepare the Filling:

In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Add the sugar and flour, mixing well. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the mango puree, vanilla extract, and salt, and mix until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

Bake the Cheesecake:

Pour the cream cheese mixture over the cooled crust, spreading it evenly. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is set and firm. Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool at room temperature for 15 minutes.

Prepare the Topping:

In a medium bowl, mix the mango puree, sugar, and lemon juice. Sprinkle the unflavored gelatin over the mixture and let it sit for 5 minutes. Then, heat the mixture in the microwave for 20-30 seconds, or until the gelatin is completely dissolved.

Assemble the Cheesecake:

Pour the mango topping over the cooled cheesecake, spreading it evenly. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until well chilled and firm.

Serve:

Cut the mango cheesecake into slices and serve chilled. Enjoy!
