Mango Mini Cheesecake


It’s Bake-Along 4th Anniversary and Congratulation to Joyce, Zoe and Lena for making it thus far!  I’m so glad that I can be part of it to celebrate Bake-Along with you girls and also with the rest of the bloggers.


Here’s my Mango Mini Cheesecake specially made for 
Bake-Along 4th Anniversary.
Pretty?  I think they’re pretty :P  My good friends Serene and Cindy also think they’re pretty.  Taste good? My sister-in-law said it’s very good and the boys commented it’s the best cheesecake hahaha!  My verdict is the mango topping has overpowered the cheesecake.


It was a wonderful and accomplishing bake.  

I’ve been wanted to bake these mini cheesecakes long time ago when I saw it in Anna (My Bare Cupboard)’s blog.  Her cheesecakes were so beautifully done.  
I got these mini cheesecake tins during my last trip to Hong Kong, which I couldn’t find them in Singapore.  I’m so happy that I can use it to bake for this Bake Along.


It’s not difficult to bake cheesecake.  The recipe is easy.  You won’t get wrong with it.  As for mango topping, I used the leftover ready-made mango puree and top up with some cut ripe mango.

Here’s the recipe, which I adapted from My Bare Cupboard with some of my modification.

Happy Bake-Along!!


INGREDIENTS

1.5 cups finely ground graham crackers (I used Digestive biscuits)
3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
1.5 cups plus 5 tablespoon sugar (I reduced to 100g of caster sugar)
Cream Cheese (I used whatever I have balance in the fridge, which is about 315g)
Pinch salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
4 large eggs, room temperature (I reduced to 3 eggs)


METHODS

(1)Preheat oven.  Stir together the smash digestive biscuits and butter and press into the bottom of the mini cheesecake tins.  Bake for about 10 minutes.  Transfer the tins to rack to cool.



(2)Beat cream cheese until fluffy.  Gradually add in the sugar.  Mix in salt and vanilla essence until well combined.  Add eggs, one at a time, beat until just combined after each (do not overmix) and scraping the bowl.


(3)Spoon the cream cheese over the crust in each tin.  Bake until set say about 25mins. 


(4)Transfer the tins to the racks to cool completely.  Refrigerate in tins, uncovered, at least 4 hours, remove from tins.  Refrigerate in air-tight containers up to 5 days.




I’m submitting this for Bake-Along 4th Anniversary and the theme is Cheesecake.  
This is organised by 3 beautiful ladies from Kitchen Flavours, Bake For Happy Kids and Frozen Wings.

  7. Hi Amy,
    Your mini cheesecakes looks beautiful and so delicious! I like the mango topping!
    I have seen a 12-hole cheesecake pan with removable base in one of the shopping centres in S'pore last December. Wanted very badly to buy it , but so expensive (after conversion, cost about RM140!). Keeping my fingers crossed ever since then that I can find it over here!
    Always happy to see you baking along with us!
