Ingredients
For the Base:
- 200g digestive biscuits, crushed
- 100g unsalted butter, melted
For the Filling:
- 400g cream cheese, softened
- 150g powdered sugar
- 200ml heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Topping:
- 2 ripe mangoes, pureed
- 100ml passionfruit juice
- 2 tablespoons gelatin powder
- ¼ cup water (for gelatin)
For Garnish:
- Fresh mango slices
- Passionfruit pulp
Instructions
1. Prepare the Base:
In a bowl, mix the crushed digestive biscuits with melted butter until well combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to create a solid base. Refrigerate while preparing the filling.
2. Make the Filling:
In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form, then gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture.
3. Prepare the Topping:
In a small saucepan, heat the mango puree and passionfruit juice over low heat. In a separate bowl, dissolve the gelatin in warm water, then stir it into the fruit mixture. Allow to cool slightly before folding into the cheesecake filling.
4. Assemble & Chill:
Pour the cheesecake filling over the prepared biscuit base, smoothing the top with a spatula. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4-6 hours, or until fully set.
5. Garnish & Serve:
Once set, remove the cheesecake from the springform pan. Garnish with fresh mango slices and passionfruit pulp for a beautiful tropical finish. Slice and enjoy!
Recipe Tips
- For an extra vibrant glaze, brush a thin layer of warmed passionfruit pulp over the cheesecake before serving.
- Want more texture? Add diced mango or passionfruit seeds to the filling for bursts of flavor.
- For a lighter option, swap out half of the cream cheese for Greek yogurt.
