Mango cheesecake is a delicious dessert that combines the tanginess of cream cheese with the sweet and tropical flavor of fresh mangoes. It typically consists of a graham cracker crust, a creamy cheesecake filling that is mixed with mango puree, and is often topped with fresh mango slices or a mango sauce.

Here is a recipe for Mango Cheesecake:

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
