The word mango makes me weak at knees as I have a penchant for mango, after all, I am Indian. Indians and their fondness of mango go hand in hand. There is no denying that natures best creation, mango should be enjoyed on its own for the real taste and flavours, also to obtain the maximum amount of nutrition. In my family, most of the time, sweet and juicy mangoes are devoured fresh, however, since I have joined this blogging world, seeing all these beautiful and tempting creations of mango recipes I too wanted to jump in that bandwagon and here I am with my recipe of No Bake Mango Ginger Cheese Cake!

MANGO GINGER CHEESECAKE

We Gujaratis are very fond of Mangoes, but rather we enjoy it fresh pulp aka Keri No Ras and this dish has an inclusion of dry ginger powder. There are several benefits of adding dry ginger in the fresh Mango Pulp and having it. I was smitten by my SIL's Mango Ginger Icecream in 1993, these flavours were dancing in my head. So when I thought about making a mango recipe, I  I made this cake for my daughter on her birthday (any excuse to feed my baby blog too)



My No bake mango ginger cheesecake is assembled in three layers. A base prepared with digestive and ginger cookies, a middle layer, a cheese layer that is made with cheese, cream, mango pulp and candied ginger. A cheese layer gets its golden colour and tropical flavours from stirring a mango pulp/puree in the cream cheese mixture and the third layer is the mango glaze layer which prepared with mango puree and agar agar powder.

TASTE OF MANGO GINGER CHEESECAKE

The mango and ginger in this cheesecake make it taste absolutely sensational. A perfect marriage of flavours, the candied ginger in the cheese gives a little extra zing and adds a little bite too.

INGREDIENTS FOR THE NO BAKE MANGO GINGER CHEESECAKE

Mango - If fresh mangoes available choose very sweet mangoes if not you can always rely on tinned or frozen mango pulp. Indian mango pulp can be found in two varieties, KESAR and ALPHONSO any will do for this recipe.



Ginger - I have used stem ginger which comes in a bottle with syrup.



Cheese - Full fat cream cheese and Mascarpone Cheese.



Cream - Double cream



Margarine - I have not used butter, margarine keeps biscuit layer soft and crumbly.



Agar agar stripes, flakes or powder



Sugar
