Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • ⅓ cup fresh lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons lime zest
  • 1 cup mango puree (fresh or canned)
  • 2 tablespoons honey (optional)
  • Lime slices for garnish

How to Make Lime Cheesecake with Mango Sauce

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to create the crust. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove and let cool.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and sugar together until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, mix in the sour cream, lime juice, and lime zest until fully combined.
  5. Pour the cream cheese filling over the cooled crust in the springform pan. Smooth the top with a spatula.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center still has a slight jiggle. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool in the oven with the door slightly ajar for about an hour.
  7. Once cooled, refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.
  8. For the mango sauce, blend the mango puree with honey until smooth. If using canned mango, ensure it’s well-drained.
  9. Before serving, drizzle the mango sauce over the cheesecake and garnish with lime slices.

Tips for the Best Results

  • Ensure your cream cheese is at room temperature for a smooth batter.
  • Don’t rush the cooling process; letting the cheesecake cool slowly helps prevent cracks.
  • For a smoother mango sauce, strain it through a fine mesh sieve to remove any fibrous bits.

Easy Variations

  • Swap lime juice with lemon juice for a different citrus flavor.
  • Add a layer of fresh fruit on top before serving for an extra pop of color and flavor.
  • For a gluten-free option, use gluten-free graham crackers for the crust.

What to Serve With It

  • Fresh berries, such as strawberries or raspberries, for a colorful contrast.
  • A scoop of vanilla ice cream for a creamy complement.
  • A light mint salad for a refreshing palate cleanser.

Storage and Reheating

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. This cheesecake is best served chilled, so there’s no need to reheat!
