Ingredients
  

1 ½ cups crushed graham crackers

½ cup unsweetened shredded coconut

½ cup unsalted butter, melted

2 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened

1 cup sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup heavy whipping cream

1 ripe mango, pureed (reserve some for garnish)

1 tablespoon lime juice

1 tablespoon gelatin (optional, for extra firmness)

2 tablespoons water (for gelatin)

Fresh mint leaves (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Crust:

    - In a mixing bowl, combine crushed graham crackers, shredded coconut, and melted butter. Mix until well combined.

      - Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form a crust. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

        Make the Filling:

          - In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.

            - Gradually add sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.

              Incorporate Mango and Cream:

                - Add the mango puree and lime juice to the cream cheese mixture, mixing until fully incorporated.

                  - In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form.

                    - Gently fold the whipped cream into the mango-cream cheese mixture until no streaks remain.

                      Optional Gelatin Step:

                        - If using gelatin, dissolve the gelatin in 2 tablespoons of warm water. Let it cool slightly, then fold into the cheesecake mixture for added firmness.

                          Combine and Chill:

                            - Pour the filling over the prepared crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.

                              - Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results until set.

                                Serve:

                                  - Before serving, top the cheesecake with additional mango puree and fresh mint leaves for garnish.

                                    - Carefully run a knife around the edges of the cheesecake before removing the sides of the springform pan for a perfect presentation.
