HomeKreation Mango Cheesecake

I created the cheesecake filling recipe to serve for our small Hari Raya open house recently. We just returned from kampung with a bag of very sweet mango given by my husband's relatives. Coincidentally, I had a packet of cream cheese and also a packet of cream. I wanted the cheesecake to be rich with mango taste but couldn't find any cheesecake recipe that used pureed mango. Confidently, I created my own recipe based on my own imagination and appetite. The result is awesome...!!

Many of the guests asked for the recipe and here it is:
