Hi friends! As some of you might know, I’m an ardent mango lover and love developing new recipes with the king of fruits. From raw mango pickles and chutneys to mango cakes, salads, or kheer, I like surprising my palate with its indulgent flavours. Monsoons have arrived, albeit haltingly, in Mumbai so I decided to bid adieu to them for this season with a simple and easy mango cheesecake recipe. This turned out to be a huge hit with my family and I had puppy-eyed requests for repeats. 🙂
Mango cheesecake has a salty touch to it which balances its sweetness beautifully. I didn’t have cream cheese at home and decided to use the next best, and healthier, option, paneer to give it the perfect texture and smoothness. Ripe Alphonso mangoes would work best for this recipe. Also, since this is a no-bake mango cheesecake, you can use ramekins or small glass serving bowls to set it in. Let’s get started!
Ingredients:
7-8 digestive biscuits
2-3 tbsp melted salted butter
1 cup Alphonso mangoes
1/2 cup crumbled fresh paneer
2-3 tbsp condensed milk
For garnish: Chopped mango cubes
Procedure:
1. Blend the digestive biscuits and butter till they’re well combined. Set this mixture at the base of a ramekin tightly and refrigerate it for 10-15 mins.
2. Blend the mangoes, paneer, and condensed milk till they form a smooth semi-thick mixture. Make sure that there are no lumps.
3. Layer this over the biscuit base and refrigerate overnight or for at least 4-5 hrs
4. Once it is set, garnish with chopped mango cubes and serve chilled!
You can use refined sugar and a drop of milk instead of condensed milk too. Avoid brown sugar or jaggery powder though to avoid the taste, colour, and texture getting irreversibly altered. Chilling is crucial, so placate your tastebuds into forced submission. 😉
What are your favourite mango recipes? Do you like to experiment and innovate too? Would love to know.

I am a confessed Cheesecake lover and what I love most about this particular recipe is that it is no bake – what a relief in the scorching Delhi summer!
Wow…. Simply wow. We love mangoes. And I am always looking for easy mango recipe. This recipe is magical. Thanks Varsha for such amazing recipe. You should post is early now our mango are over.😕
Kinda forgot my annual mango recipe ritual. Save it for later, maybe?
Exactly. Easy to make.
I want to make this but when I cut the mango, the glorious aroma tempts me to eat them just like that. Maybe someday I will surely try this recipe.
I can understand, Cindy. Hope you can! 😀
Easy peasy! I am going to try this, I avoid high calorie desserts, so this one sounds cool. No extra sugar and home-made.
Thank you, Ambica!
I’m not a mango fan (or any fruit fan) and yet I could feel the smoothness of the cheesecake on my tongue as I read your delectable recipe. Will not try it coz I’m not a great cook. But will try a mango cheesecake for the first time, just to feel the experience of your words.
You can try it with coffee or plain flavouring too.
This recipe is pure magic! I love how you’ve incorporated a healthy twist into a classic dessert. Mango cheesecake without the guilt sounds like a dream. Can’t wait to try it out—thanks for sharing this gem!
You’re welcome. Do try! 🙂
Wow Varsha, you make this too?… the only difference between my version n yours is that I use hung curd instead of paneer and I serve it in shot glasses if I don’t have enough time to chill. I will try the paneer version as it sounds equally yummy. Thank you for this twist. 😊
I am not drawn to long -drawn recipes ( pun intended) so this is right up my alley.
Thank you!
I’ll try your version and you try mine. Never too much for mango lovers! 😍
This is an absolutely easy and must to make recipe for me. In summers anything made of mangoes, be it ripe or raw I am always in love with. I will definitely try this out without fail. Just loving it Yummy 🙂
Thank you!
Wow … Simply wow. We love mangoes and I am always looking for a easy mango recipe. Your recipe is magical varsha. You should post it earlier. Our mango are over now 😕 . I am bookmarking it.
Being a cheesecake lover I would love to try this healthy version of Mango cheesecake. It looks so delicious. Can’t wait to try it now.
Thank you!
I haven’t heard of mango cheesecake and this one looks easy-peasy. Thanks for sharing this while mangoes are still in season.
Glad you liked it. 🙂
I love cheesecakes and of course mangoes, as with every Indian, are my favourite fruit. You’ve combined two things I love as a foodie so of course I’m gonna try this recipe. Thanks for sharing
This is my guilty pleasure now. Do try, you’ll want to make and eat over and over again.
Just reading the recipe and I am drooling, Varsha. I too make but mostly with pineapple, cream and biscuits.
Try with mango this time, you’ll definitely love it.
That’s sound so easy and simple to make. I m sure it was super delicious.
It is. 🙂
Give me all the no bake recipes! I am not big on baking so these kind of recipes I always look out for!
Thank you!
This is quick and easy. Thank you for sharing it. I will surely try it out. I also replace cream cheese with paneer when I am running short of it.
Yes, paneer is a good replacement. Handy at home too.
The recipe looks easy and oh-so-delicious 😋 I am going to try it this month and please my family;)
Thank you, Aditi!
This is so easy. Thanks for sharing it. Mangoes in season so I am surely going to try this out. Not a big fan of alphonsos, so maybe langda.
I’m sure langda will work just as well. 🙂
I had a baker friend who made something similar for us to try out. Indeed delicious.
Thank you!
Wow this looks healthy and easy, never knew we can add paneer 🙂 Thank you for the recipe, I will try it for sure during the next mango season here in Sindhudurg.
Thank you!
Paneer isn’t something commonly used in the Philippines so it’s interesting for me to see a cheesecake use it. We of course are fond of cheesecakes, of any kind! Mangoes though is also a favorite in our household which we eat almost everyday(when in season) and put in different desserts as well.
Same here. Mango season has us gorging on them almost everyday.
Mango blended with cheese is so tempting. And the recipe us so easy and takes very less time too. I am definitely going to try this out. Thank fully mango are still there here.
Thank you!
Easy yet delicious! What more can one ask for during mango season?!
