Mango CheeseCake (No Bake) 芒果芝士凍餅


My son's birthday is approaching. He's been thinking about whether to have a black forest cake or a mango mousse cake. Both are his favorite but I convinced him to try this mango cheesecake that I learned recently. I altered the recipe a bit. This is a no-bake cheesecake and there is only 22g/2 tbsp of sugar added in the recipe (because the mango puree is already sweetened).



The rest of the sweetness is completely from the mango, so make sure the mangoes you use are ripe. The fresh mango aroma is irresistible!



Makes an 8 inch round cake

Ingredients:
A)  Mango jello filling: 
7g/1 pkg gelatin
53g mango puree
267g water

B)  Mango cheese:
1 egg yolk
10g gelatin
57g water

1pkg/227g cream cheese, room temperature
22g sugar

213g heavy cream, cold
256g mango puree
1 tsp lemon juice

C)  Oreo cookie cake base:
8 pieces/125g oreo cookie, crushed
62g unsalted butter, room temperature

D)  Topping:
6g gelatin
160g water
160g mango puree
267g mango meat, diced

1)  Make the mango jello filling first by mixing the gelatin in the water and melting it by microwaving for 20-30 seconds or until melted. Add the mango puree and mix well. Line a round bowl (smaller than 8 inches) with plastic wrap and pour the mixture in. Put it in the refrigerator for at least an hour until set.
2)  Make the base by putting the Oreo cookies in a bag. Use a rolling pin to smash it until it is crushed. Put it in a bowl and mix with the room temperature butter. Use a spoon to press the mixture to the bottom of a springform pan. Put it to the refrigerator until ready to use.
3)  To make the mango cheese:
a)  slightly whip the egg yolk with water and temper the yolk by sitting the bowl on a pot of simmering water. Stir it constantly for about 3 minutes to prevent curdling. Add the gelatin and mix until it melts. Turn off the heat and let it stay in the warm water until ready to mix with the rest of the ingredients.
b)  beat the room temperature cream cheese and sugar with a handheld mixer until smooth, about 3 minutes.
c)  in another bowl, whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks. Add the whipped cream cheese, mango puree and lemon juice. Mix well. Take out the warmed yolk/gelatin mixture from the pot and add to this cheese mixture and mix well.
4)  Pour about half of this mixture to the pan. .


5)  Carefully lift the mango jello from the plate with the wrap.


6)  Invert the jello onto the pan and remove the wrap.


7)  Pour the rest of the mixture and smooth the top. Refrigerate until set, about 1-2 hours.


8)  Make the topping by melting the gelatin in the water using microwave. Add the mango puree and diced mango meat and mix well. Pour to the top of the cake and refrigerate until set, about 1-2 hours.


Notes:
1)  For the mango puree, use either the canned one or blend fresh mangoes in a blender or food processor.
2)  Alternatively the mango puree on the topping can be skipped to make a more transparent look. Just replace it with an equal amount of water.
3)  Use a warm towel to briefly wrap around the pan for easy release.
