Mango, Coconut,and Lime No‑Bake Cheesecake

Crust

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 300°F (300°F) for 5 minutes, then turn it off – this brief heat helps the chocolate set the crust.

2. 2

   In a large bowl, combine the crushed biscuits with the melted butter and stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.

3. 3

   Add the melted dark chocolate and white chocolate to the biscuit mixture, folding gently until fully incorporated.

4. 4

   Press the crust mixture evenly into the bottom of a 20‑cm (8‑inch) springform pan, using the back of a spoon or a flat glass to smooth the surface.

5. 5

   Place the pan in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes to firm the crust.

Filling

6. 6

   In a small bowl, bloom the gelatin in 2 tbsp cold water; let sit for 5 minutes, then gently heat (microwave 10 seconds) until dissolved.

7. 7

   In a stand mixer or large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with the granulated sugar until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes.

8. 8

   Add the mango puree, coconut milk, and lime juice to the cream cheese mixture; beat on low speed until fully combined.

9. 9

   With the mixer running on low, slowly drizzle the dissolved gelatin into the filling, ensuring it is evenly distributed.

10. 10

    Taste the filling and adjust sweetness or lime intensity if desired; remember the flavors will mellow slightly after chilling.

11. 11

    Pour the filling over the chilled crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

12. 12

    Refrigerate the assembled cheesecake for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, until set.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The filling holds its shape when the pan is moved gently. Wait until fully firm before releasing the springform sides.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The chilled slice cuts cleanly and keeps its layers. Wipe the knife dry between cuts.
