Chilled Mango Cheesecake

First try out on chilled cheesecake. I normally make baked cheesecake instead. Mind the photos. I was in a hurry.

Got myself some good Indian mangoes which are currently in season (heard that it only comes around once a year). Indian mangoes are famous for their rich aroma and taste but might be a lil wasteful if you're using it for cake making. Technically, I got conned into buying it, so oh well.

Chilled Mango Cheesecake.

The mango puree gave my cake this light creamy yellow color addition to it. I also added in some mango chunks. Wicked.

I must say that the cake turned out quite well, but I'm going to try to decrease the amounts of mango puree the next time around. The cake was too "mango-y"? that it overpowered the taste of the cheese. I mean you could still taste it, but minimal though.

Packing up the slices.

Looking forward to doing another run on this cake, hopefully sometime this week.
