Mango Mini Cheesecakes Recipes

Steps:

• Line a springform pan with aluminum foil. Place biscuits in a food processor and grind into fine crumbs. Blend in allspice. Press mixture into an even layer on the bottom of the prepared pan. Freeze biscuit layer until stiff, about 1 hour.
• Beat cream cheese, heavy cream, and brown sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer until well combined.
• Stir hot water and gelatin together in a small bowl until dissolved; mix in mango puree. Transfer 1/2 cup of the mixture into the cream cheese mixture; beat until fully combined. Pour over the biscuit layer. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze until nearly firm, about 1 hour.
• Pour the remaining 1/2 cup of the mango mixture over the cream cheese layer. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze until set, about 3 hours. Refrigerate for 2 hours to overnight.

Steps:

• Generously butter the sides and bottom of an 8- or 9-inch round springform pan. Line the base and the sides with parchment paper and grease again with butter. Chill pan in the refrigerator. (This helps the butter firm up and the cake release more seamlessly.)
• Start the crust: Pulse the crackers in a food processor until they're a fine powder. Add the brown sugar and pulse to combine, then add the melted butter and pulse again until fully incorporated. Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan and use your fingers or a measuring cup to press it into an even layer. Freeze the pan for 10 to 15 minutes until completely chilled.
• Prepare the filling: Add 1/4 cup/60 milliliters room temperature water to a small, wide bowl, sprinkle the gelatin over the water and let sit for 5 minutes, until gelatin granules swell. (There should be no dry flecks of gelatin.) Pour the 1/4 cup/60 milliliters hot water over the hydrated gelatin and stir to dissolve.
• As gelatin hydrates, add the heavy cream and 1/2 cup/100 grams sugar to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, and mix at medium speed until the cream forms stiff peaks, about 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl and set aside.
• Wipe down the stand mixer bowl and the whisk attachment. Add the cream cheese and remaining 1/2 cup/100 grams sugar, and whisk on medium-high until smooth, light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Scrape down the bowl. Add the mango pulp and lime juice, and beat on medium-low, gradually increasing the speed to medium-high once the mango is incorporated, about 2 minutes. Stop the mixer and scrape down the bowl.
• Add the gelatin mixture and whisk over medium-high until completely incorporated. Remove the bowl from the mixer. Add the whipped cream, lime zest and the cardamom. Fold the cream into the mango mixture until there are no flecks of cream. (The mixture will be very light and airy, resembling a mousse.) Pour this mango mixture over the chilled crust, and level the top with an offset spatula. Return pan to the refrigerator and chill for 30 minutes.
• As cheesecake chills, prepare the glaze: Add 1/4 cup/60 milliliters room temperature water to a small, wide bowl, sprinkle the gelatin over the water and let sit for 5 minutes, until gelatin granules swell. (There should be no dry flecks of gelatin.) Pour 1/4 cup/60 milliliters hot water over the hydrated gelatin and stir to dissolve.
• In a separate medium bowl, whisk the mango pulp with the sugar. Whisk in the gelatin mixture. Add 1 teaspoon lime juice and 1 teaspoon lime zest, and whisk to thoroughly combine. Pour this mixture over the top of the cheesecake, swirl the pan to coat evenly, cover the top of the pan with plastic wrap. Refrigerate the cheesecake until the gelatin layer is completely set and firm, at least 6 hours and up to overnight.
• When ready to serve, remove the plastic wrap, and carefully release the cheesecake from the springform pan. Slice the cheesecake with a sharp, serrated knife. (For cleanest slices, wash the knife with warm water, and wipe dry with a towel between each cut.)

Steps:

• In a food processor grind together the gingersnaps and almonds, until almonds are finely chopped. Add melted butter and process briefly.
• Line 6 mini muffin tins with foil and grease. Divide crumb mix among wells, and press into to bottom and up sides to make the crust; chill 30 min's.
• Using a hand mixer, beat together mascarpone, cream cheese, sour cream, honey and lime rind. Spoon into chilled shells and chill again one hour or overnight.
• When chilled, place mango pieces on top of cheesecakes. Melt jam just until liquid, strain and either brush or drizzle over mangos; let set 30 min's then remove from foil liner and enjoy!
• You can try changing up the flavours a bit like using pineapple cream cheese or different kind of jam!

Steps:

• For crust:
• Preheat oven to 325°F. Lightly butter 9-inch-diameter springform pan with 2 3/4-inch-high sides. Stir cracker crumbs and sugar in medium bowl to blend. Add melted butter and stir until evenly moistened. Press crumb mixture firmly onto bottom (not sides) of prepared pan. Bake until crust is set, about 12 minutes. Cool completely. Maintain oven temperature.
• For filling:
• Puree mangoes in processor until smooth. Set aside 2 cups mango puree (reserve any remaining puree for another use). Beat cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla in large bowl until smooth. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Add 2 cups mango puree and beat until well blended. Pour filling over crust in pan.
• Bake cake until set and puffed and golden around edges (center may move very slightly when pan is gently shaken), about 1 hour 25 minutes. Cool cake 1 hour. Refrigerate uncovered overnight. Run small knife between cake and sides of pan to loosen. Remove pan sides. Transfer cake to platter. Cut into wedges and serve with sliced mangoes.
