Ingredients

Scale

Crust

  • 180g chocolate cookies
  • 90g unsalted butter, melted

Filling

  • 680g cream cheese, softened
  • 200g granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3 large eggs
  • 180g sour cream

Swirl Purees

  • 100g fresh mango puree
  • 100g fresh strawberry puree
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust: Crush the chocolate cookies into fine crumbs and mix thoroughly with the melted butter. Press this mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of a springform pan. Place the crust in the refrigerator to chill and set while you prepare the filling.
  2. Make the cheesecake batter: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and free of lumps. Gradually add the granulated sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until fully incorporated and creamy.
  3. Add eggs and sour cream: Introduce the eggs one at a time, mixing on a low speed after each addition to prevent overbeating. Stir in the sour cream until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring a rich texture.
  4. Prepare the fruit purees: Divide the mango and strawberry purees into two separate small bowls. Mix 1 teaspoon of cornstarch into each puree to help stabilize the fruit swirls during baking.
  5. Assemble the cheesecake: Pour the cream cheese batter evenly over the chilled crust in the springform pan. Drop spoonfuls of the mango and strawberry purees on top of the batter. Using a skewer or knife, carefully swirl the two purees through the batter to create an attractive marble pattern.
  6. Bake the cheesecake: Place the pan in a preheated oven at 325°F (163°C). Bake for 50 to 60 minutes until the center is set but still slightly jiggly when gently shaken, indicating perfect doneness.
  7. Cool gradually: Turn off the oven, leave the door slightly ajar, and let the cheesecake cool slowly inside the oven for 1 hour. This gradual cooling helps prevent cracks on the surface.
  8. Chill before serving: After cooling in the oven, transfer the cheesecake to the refrigerator. Chill for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the texture to firm up. Serve chilled for the best taste and consistency.

Notes

  • Use room temperature cream cheese for a smoother batter and to avoid lumps.
  • Ensure eggs are incorporated gently to prevent cracking during baking.
  • Allow the cheesecake to cool slowly to minimize surface cracks.
  • Chilling overnight enhances flavor and texture.
  • Fresh fruit purees provide a bright flavor; canned alternatives can be used but adjust sweetness accordingly.
