Step-by-Step Instructions
- Create the mango purée by simmering 1 cup of puréed mangoes with 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar for about 15 minutes until thickened. Allow to cool to room temperature.
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and position a rack in the center.
- In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, brown sugar, and a pinch of salt until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press firmly into the baking pan and bake for 10 minutes.
- Beat softened cream cheese until smooth, then add ½ cup of cooled mango purée, granulated sugar, flour, and vanilla extract. Mix well, then incorporate room-temperature eggs until just combined.
- Pour the cheesecake filling over the crust. Drop spoonfuls of reserved mango purée on top and swirl for a marbled effect.
- Bake the cheesecake bars for 30-32 minutes until the edges are set and the center is slightly wobbly. Cool completely at room temperature.
- Transfer to the refrigerator and chill for at least 4 hours, or overnight, for the best flavor.
