Mango Cheesecake!!

Mangoes are one of my favourite things about summer. They are just sooo delicious. So I tried capturing the divine taste of mango in a cheesecake!!!



Ingredients 


Crust
1 1/4 cup of digestive biscuits
1/4 cup of sugar 
1/3 cup of butter

Cheesecake
2 tablespoons of unflavoured gelatine dissolved in 1/2 cup of water
160g fresh cream 
1 cup cream cheese 
1 1/2 cup mango pulp ( preferably ripe alphonso mangoes ) 
condensed milk and sugar ( as to your liking )

Method

Crust
Crush the digestive biscuits. Melt the butter and mix it in with the digestive biscuit. Add sugar to the mixture and combine the ingredients evenly. Now resist the temptation to devour the mixture and patiently press it into your cake tin or the container used. If you feel that the cheesecake will stick to the side of your container, line the container with plastic wrap or cling film.



This is a zoomed version of what it should look like.


Cheesecake
Dissolve the gelatine in hot water and set aside. Whip the cream till it reaches soft peak stage. Now add the cream cheese and mango pulp to that . Add condensed milk and sugar to the mixture —  adjust according to taste. I think I used about 120ml of condensed milk as I thought it diluted the taste of mango and I used 1/4 cup of sugar. Finally, add the gelatin into the mixture. Pour the mixture into your container and keep it in your refrigerator till it sets. You can also decorate the cheesecake with mango slices.





That's all !
Have fun!
And if anybody has an easy recipe for macarons or one that does not involve almond flour, please let me know .
Byeeee =D
