Mango Cheesecake
Mango purée adds a delicious tropical flavor to this luscious creamy cheesecake. To prevent cracking across the center of the cheesecake, don’t open the oven door while the cheesecake is in the oven. When it is removed from the oven, run a knife along the edge of pan so that the cake can pull away freely as it shrinks.
