[@mar1ojo]

Can I use the 1/3 less fat cream cheese ....for the mango topping will it not darken after few hrs or a day ...thnx

[@cookingwithkurt]

Hello - great to hear from you again! Yes, you may make any changes you like, any adjustments you see fit in terms of the cream cheese fat content, to make the cake more enjoyable for you. Mango darkening is just a natural reaction of oxygen reacting with the fruit and oxidizing it, which creates a darker color. However, we didn't notice this happening with our mango cheesecakes. We leave them in the fridge for 4 - 5 days and it doesn't turn dark. The step of cooking the mango slices with sugar is supposed to prevent this from happening - cooking the mango slices briefly with sugar should stop any enzymatic browning when it is stored after. Hope this helps! 😊

[@marialuisasanjose5957]

I love you both god bless you always ♥️💋💋💋🇮🇹

[@princessclarissevillanueva5239]

How to prevent the mango filling from discoloring? Thank you!

[@cookingwithkurt]

The step of cooking the mango in the compote prevents discoloration. Hope this helps! 😊

[@soniafunelas3741]

I have no food processor. Can I use the nutri bullet for mango mixture

[@cookingwithkurt]

Hi Sonia - yes, a nutri bullet or standard blender should also work. Hope this helps! :)

Hi there, may I know 1 1/2 cup of mango puree is equivalent to how many grams please? Thanks in advance

[@cookingwithkurt]

Hello - that information can be found on the container of the mango puree/pulp you buy. Hope this helps! 😊

[@mar1ojo]

No need for cornstarch on the filling? to prevent crack..thnx

[@cookingwithkurt]

Hello - we’d suggest following the recipe as is. But you may make any changes you like, any adjustments you see fit to make the cheesecake more enjoyable for you 😊

[@pratheenbaskaran3024]

Hey can I use mango pulp instead of mangoes for the cheesecake filling?

[@cookingwithkurt]

Hi Pratheen - yes. You’ll need about 1 1/2 cups worth of mango pulp. Hope this helps! 😊

[@pratheenbaskaran3024]

@@cookingwithkurt Awesome, thanks for the quick reply!

[@pratheenbaskaran3024]

Also, if I were to use an 8 inch springform pan, how much should I decrease the ingredient amounts by?

[@cookingwithkurt]

@@pratheenbaskaran3024 I’d suggest multiplying everything by 3/4. But you can probably get away with keeping everything as is. Hope this helps! 😊

[@user-um3fj1pl2p]

Hi Kurt, why mine after 1 hr 45 mins, the top got burnt? Please advise.

[@cookingwithkurt]

Hello - It’s difficult to say what went wrong without seeing what you did. Some ovens run hotter than others. So perhaps baking at a lower temperature. Hope this helps! 😊

[@user-um3fj1pl2p]

@@cookingwithkurt thanks Kurt! Should I lower to 300 or reduce the time?

[@pearlz198]

Hello! Can I use all purpose cream instead of heavy cream? 🥹

[@cookingwithkurt]

Hello - other creams like whipping cream, evaporated milk, or Nestle all-purpose cream cannot be used as a substitute for heavy cream, as it doesn’t have a high enough fat content. Heavy cream has a higher fat content (about 35-40% fat content), which is needed for the frosting to whip into stiff peaks and remain stable at room temperature. If the cream you're using has lower than 35-40% fat, it will not form stiff peaks. So make sure you're actually using cold "heavy cream" - also called "thick cream" in some countries. Hope this helps! :)
