Eggless No-Bake Mango Cheesecake Recipe Step by Step

Eggless no-bake mango cheesecake recipe, a fabulously delicious cheesecake recipe with mango puree and cream cheese that’s an indulgent dessert for guests or parties. I have used gelatine to set the mango layer but you can use agar gar or China grass, a vegetarian alternative used for the same purpose.

This mango cheesecake is a great recipe to try during the summer mango season, fresh mangoes always work best but I have used canned mango pulp here for ease. I also suggest taking a look at my Eggless Oreo Cheesecake Recipe that uses no setting agents. Or maybe something like this Eggless Strawberry Mousse is more your type of dessert?

Check out this very easy to make and delicious butter pudding recipe on the blog too.

I have taken pictures at every stage of this mango cheesecake recipe and I am going to force you to look at them (scroll down to the bottom for the short version without pics). This does not mean this is not an easy recipe. I mean, this is cheesecake you don’t need to bake. It really doesn’t get easier than that. Round up your ingredients and let’s get started.

Ingredients

  

• 250 grams cream cheese I used Philadelphia brand
• 170 grams cream I used Nestle, 35% fat
• ½ cup sugar
• ¾ cup mango fresh or canned
• 1 tablespoon gelatine powder vegetarians see notes
• ¼ cup hot water
• 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
• 75 grams unsalted butter melted (about ⅓ of a cup)

Instructions

 

• Powder the graham crackers coarsely in a food processor.
• Add melted butter and process again until the mixture comes together.
• Press into the bottom of an 8" springform pan that's lined with aluminium foil or use individual glasses.
• Refrigerate this while preparing the rest of the cheesecake.
• Whisk the cream cheese, cream, and sugar in a bowl until well combined. You can do it by hand or use low speed on your Kitchenaid. An electric beater is not needed.
• Add the gelatine or agar agar to the hot water and stir till it completely dissolves.
• Add the mango puree to this and stir well.
• Keep half of this mixture aside and add the rest to the cream cheese mixture.
• Stir gently until well combined.
• Pour this mixture on top of the graham cracker base. Return to the fridge for another 10-30 mins depending on how much time you have
• Pour the mango mixture as the third layer. Do this gently so that the layers don't combine. If you use a springform pan, the top layer will be much thinner, as it should be.
• Refrigerate overnight and serve chilled

Notes

• If you are a vegetarian or don't want to use gelatine, you can use agar agar powder or China grass powder. It's a plant-based thickener that works the same way as gelatine. You can find it in Asian stores and most supermarkets sell these in powder form or in strips. If you are using strips, dissolve 5 gm in 2-3 tablespoon hot water until completely dissolved and use in the above recipe.
• The colour of the mango layer will depend on the mango puree you are using. Canned alphonso gives a deep colour like in the photos.

Eggless No-Bake Mango Cheesecake Step by Step

Pin

You are going to need graham crackers for the base but if you don't have any handy, go with digestive biscuits or Marie biscuits.

Pin

Give them a whiz in your food processor to turn into crumbs. You can even put them into a ziplock and use a rolling pin to smash them into small pieces. I always take the easy way out, especially when the end result won't show much difference anyway.

Pin

Time to pour in some melted better.

Pin

Give the mixture another whiz so that the base becomes moist and crumbly, just the way we want it. At this time, I urge you to smell this mixture. I swear it already smells a bit like cheesecake!

Pin

Now, you can go many routes. Use an 8" springform pan if you want one full cake which you can later slice up. I decided to set them in individual glasses and picked out whatever I had in hand. This will make serving much easier, especially if you are making this for a small party or something. Also looks infinitely prettier.

Pin

Spoon some into each glass and press firmly with the back of a spoon or fingertips. Leave this in the refrigerator while the rest of the cheesecake is prepared.

Pin

Mix well together the cream cheese, sugar, and cream. You can do this with a whisk by hand since you are not going to beat it much, just until it all comes together. I used my Kitchenaid for the job.

Pin

Time to bring out the gelatine. This is our setting agent, since this is a no-bake cheesecake recipe. See notes at the end of this recipe for vegetarians to use agar agar powder.

Dissolve 1 tablespoon gelatine in hot water.

Pin

Mix this into the mango puree. I used canned mango puree but if you have fresh mangoes that you want to use up (lucky you!), then go for that, please. Make sure the mango puree is well combined with the gelatine mixture.

Pin

Reserve half and pour the rest into the cream cheese mixture. Incorporate well. This is our middle layer or the main part of the cheesecake. How easy was that?

Pin

Bring out the glasses from the fridge and spoon the cheesecake mixture into each, until about ¾th full. Return to fridge for atleast 10 mins. I took them out in about 15 mins or so.

Pin

Pin

Once the cheesecake has set a bit in the fridge, pour the reserved mango-gelatine mixture gently on top of the cheesecake. If you don't do the refrigerating bit after you pour in the cheesecake, that will blend into the top layer that you are pouring in now so its important to let the cheesecake mixture set for a bit.

Pin

That's it! Refrigerate overnight or at least 6-8 hours for a delicious dessert.

Full credit for this recipe goes to my classmate from school, Swetha and her cousin. She emailed me this recipe long back and I had kept it in my to-do list for ages. Glad I got around to finally making it. This is an easy dessert that makes you look really good for making it, just the kind I love!

This eggless no-bake mango cheesecake recipe is an original Edible Garden recipe, first shared back in June 2011. Countless people have tried it successfully. I made minor edits to the recipe and have republished it. I

got it from a friend who passed it on from a cousin and it includes my own changes and adaptations. It's one of the most popular recipes on the blog and I am particularly proud of it 🙂
