No Bake Mango Custard Cheesecake Recipe

Mango cheesecake, i can never skip making one of those whenever mangoes are in season. Mangoes are in season now and when i was planning to make them, i thought to give a different take on those. I had some custard leftover from my trifle recipe, so i thought of using those.

Method:

Start by making the custard, because it has to cool down.Take Custard powder in a bowl and add some of the milk. Mix well so no lumps are formed. Set aside. Take the remaining milk and sugar in a sauce pan and bring it to boil, add in the custard mix and keep cooking till it gets thick. Take it off the heat and add in vanilla. Mix well. Pour this into a bowl and cover with plastic wrap, make sure the wrap touches the top layer of the custard so a hard skin don’t form on the custard. Chill this in fridge till cold.

Now take a round baking pan and line it with plastic wrap. Set aside.

Now lets make the biscuit base. First take butter in a sauce pan and melt it down. Take biscuit in a blender and powder it finely. Transfer it to a bowl and add in butter. Mix well. Spoon this into the plastic lined pan and spread it evenly using a spoon. Put this in fridge to chill till you make the custard.

Now make the Cheesecake filling. First take gelatin and add in cold water. Mix well. Set aside so it softens. Now take this in a a sauce pan and melt it gently till the gelatin is completely melted. Set aside. Take cream in a bowl and whip it till thick. Set aside.Take mangoes in a blender, add in 3 tblspn sugar and puree them. Set aside.

Take the cooled custard in a bowl, add in mango puree, gelatin and cream. Fold gently. Spoon this over the biscuit layer and chill this for 2 to 3 hours in fridge.

Now take it out from fridge and remove it carefully from the tin with the help of plastic wrap and peel away the plastic. Now place this in a plate and top with fresh mango pieces.

Slice and serve.
