Ingredients
  

For the crust:

1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs

½ cup unsweetened shredded coconut

¼ cup brown sugar

½ cup unsalted butter, melted

For the cheesecake filling:

16 oz cream cheese, softened

½ cup coconut cream (canned)

¾ cup powdered sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 cup ripe mango puree (about 2 ripe mangoes)

1 tbsp lemon juice

1 tsp gelatin (optional, for firmer texture)

For the topping:

1 cup fresh mango slices

¼ cup unsweetened shredded coconut (toasted)

Mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the crust: In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, shredded coconut, and brown sugar. Pour in the melted butter and mix until the mixture is well combined and resembles wet sand. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to create an even layer. Chill in the refrigerator while preparing the filling.

    Make the filling: In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add in the coconut cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.

      Incorporate mango: Add the mango puree and lemon juice to the cream cheese mixture, mixing until completely combined.

        Optional gelatin: If using gelatin for a firmer texture, dissolve it in 2 tablespoons of warm water and let it sit for a minute. Then, stir it into the mango cheesecake mixture until well incorporated.

          Assemble the cheesecake: Pour the mango cheesecake mixture over the prepared crust, spreading it evenly. Smooth the top using a spatula and tap the pan gently on the counter to remove air bubbles. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight for the best results.

            Serve: Once set, carefully remove the cheesecake from the springform pan. Top with fresh mango slices and sprinkle toasted coconut over the top. Garnish with mint leaves if desired for a fresh touch.

              Enjoy: Slice into wedges and serve chilled. Enjoy each creamy, tropical bite of your No-Bake Mango Coconut Cheesecake!
