Cheesecakes are soft , jelly like which needs to be set in layers beginning with a hard base made from biscuits & crackers crushed & layered down and the soft cheese cake on top .Cheese cakes are just cream cheese fluffed in , flavored and put in the refrigerator to set . Mangoes are in season now , ready for the summer , and let me tell you mango & coconut are like the best of friends , so when we make a mango cheese cake , it is preferred to use coconut biscuits or crackers as the base .Well , I didn't have any coconut crackers at home , so I used the Graham crackers & the result was good. You can experiment around with the stuffs you already have at home , rather than being recipe specific .. that's when you let the creative cells flowing down to your plate.
Kids will love it , because it is all jelly , creamy like ice cream thing . The hardest part is waiting for the layers to set , I couldn't wait to get it ready , so her's the recipe .
