Yummy yummy Mango cheesecake

Last Saturday meanwhile my husband was sawing the project I decided to make something with half a mango I was saving on the fridge. So I remembered I wanted to make cheesecake and that I was having all the ingredients and decided to make so.

Before you continue reading, I have to say that I made the best ever cheesecake!

Here it go:

{Ingredients for 8-10 persons}

{For the crust}
- 150 gr all purpose floor
- 1 egg
- 50 gr brown sugar
- 75 gr butter

{For the filling}
- 750 gr of quark (or equivalent cooking cheese)
- 125 gr cream
- 300 gr brown sugar
- 2 full spoons of all purpose floor
- 4 eggs
- The juice of one lemon

{For the top}
- 2 gelatine leaves of 2gr each
- 100gr brown sugar
- Half a mango
- 25cl water
- The juice of half a lemon

{Cooking utensils}
- A 30cm diameter baking tin
- 2 large bowls, one small bowl
- A cooking scale
- A mixer (I used a whisk and works wonderful)
- An oven
- A saucepan

{Preparation time and cost}
- Preparation: 30min
- Cooking: 1h15min
- Cooling: 4-5h
- Cost: about 7 CHF

Preparing the crust:

Preheat the oven at 180 ºC (360 ºF). Mix well all the ingredients. Butter the baking tin so the crust does not gets sticked. Spread the crust in to the tin making a thin layer and pick all the surface with a fork to avoid bubbles while cooking. Put at the oven during 20min or till you see the borders became browner.

Preparing the filling:

Mix well all the ingredients with the mixer or the whisk till it has a really smooth texture. Fill the tin. Put on the oven at 220 ºC (428 ºF) during 15 min. Then change the oven to 90ºC (194 ºF) and let it during 35 minuts more.

Let it cool a bit (lets say 1h)

Preparing the top:

Put the gelatine leaves on a bowl with cold water.

Put the water, the lemon juice and the sugar on the stove on a medium temperature. Let it boil for about 3 min, mix from time to time. Move the saucepan out of the fire, let it cool a bit and add the gelatine, mix well till smooth. Let it cool a bit more (10 min).

Dice the mango and spread it on the top of the cake. Pour the gelatine mixture carefully. Put the cake on the fridge during 4-5h (or till the top has set, I let it overnight).

That is all! You have a fantabulous mango cheesecake that would be the delight of your full family!

I hope you like it, please let me know if you try it!
