So it goes without saying that cheesecake is one of the most delicious and decadent desserts out there, and this Mango Cheesecake takes the cake (pun intended). It’s easily one of the best mango dessert recipes I’ve ever had the pleasure of consuming. I love mangoes so much. I was surprised to hear that many people in the States had never eaten a mango before. So I made an utterly silly, but quite useful video on how to eat a mango, that you might like.

What Kind Of Mango Do I Use For Mango Cheesecake?
Ripe mango is essential for making this Instant Pot Cheesecake perfectly sweet and delicious. Since it can be hard to find the perfect mango depending on where you live, I prefer to use frozen mangoes. All you need to do is defrost your frozen mango before you get started.
How To Make Instant Pot Mango Cheesecake
Here are the steps you’ll need to take to make this Instant Pot recipe:
How To Make This Cheesecake Recipe In The Oven
If you want to bake Mango cheesecake, you’ll follow all of the standard preparation steps and then follow these steps:
How Do I Know When My Instant Pot Cheesecake Is Done?
As long as you follow these steps carefully, your Mango Cheesecake should come out perfectly cooked at the end of the cooking cycle. If you want to be absolutely sure of its doneness, simply check the internal temperature with an instant-read thermometer. You’ll know the Mango cheesecake is done when the middle of the cheesecake reaches 140-150F.
Can You Freeze Instant Pot Cheesecake?
Though I don’t typically advise freezing foods with dairy in them, Instant Pot cheesecake is one of the few exceptions. Cheesecake actually freezes quite well. I do recommend that you separate the cheesecake into slices and freezing them in individual plastic food containers so you don’t have to thaw the entire cheesecake when you get a craving. By the way if you have some leftover mango, try this mango lassi.
Tips And Tricks
Mangoes. You will want to use either sweet, fresh mangoes, or sweetened mango pulp for this recipe. I love Ataulfo mangoes, but you can’t always find them in the United States. In this situation, either frozen mango chunks, or canned mango pulp are your best bet. If you have fresh mangoes, just extract the mango pulp and then proceed as directed to make the cheese cake. Lemon Juice. You can use lime juice as well for this recipe. Crust variations. I used ginger snaps for this. But some alternatives to consider are graham cracker crust, digestive biscuits, or even nilla wafers. Just be sure to use unsalted butter. Toppings. I used a sour cream and mango glaze. But you can also use whipped cream, or some other fruit purée. I am partial to using passion fruit puree from time to time. Fresh mango slices or frozen, defrosted mango pieces make a pretty topping as well. Use it all. Have leftover mango? Make this Green Mango Cooler to enjoy while your cheesecake is cooking.
