Hi Manjula Aunty,

Hi,
Majula ji,
I used “Kraft Philadelphia Regular Cream Cheese” to make Mango cheese cake. But, it was salty.
Plz tell me brand name and type of cream cheese you use to make cake.
Thanks & Regards
Anuradha
what is cream cheese? Is it the regular cheese?
hello ,
I am sorry I couldn’t understand what is this cream cheese and also if cornstarch means cornflour right and can i replace this with yoghurt
Payal,
You can replace cornstarch with arrowroot but not corn flour. You may use yogurt after taking out the water like for Shrikhand
by what quantity do we substitute cornstarch with yoghurt?
what is cream cheese, where can i get it in delhi, or otherwise can cottage cheese be used?
Could tell me Cheese cake recipe which I can make with Yogurt as an ingredient.Thanks

Hi aunty
Can I make this in microwave and how should I adjust the timings ?

Hello Aunty,
The cheesecake looks amazin!
What should be the quantity of strawberries for the cheesecake, keepin rest of the ingredients in the same proportions?
Hi Auntyji.. Wonderful recipe & awesome presentation.. I just have few doubts –
1. Can I make this with mango pulp & if yes how much to use?
2. Can I substitute mango with strawberry & if yes how much to use?
Maithireyi
I have never made this cake with using pulp, but I have used strawberry keep the same measurement as mango showed in recipe.
Manjula Aunty,
Can I use mango pulp?If so, how much to substitute for 1 large mango? In Oz if possible please?
hi aunty,
how can i make a cheese cake without any fruit? what can be the substitute to it?
Bhavika,
Double the ingredients for cheese filling that should work.
Can you use the same recipe with Peaches?
Beena,
Yes I have made this using peaches and it works great.
Amrita,
sometimes there are some things that just can not be substituted and cream cheese is one of them. It is what defines a cheesecake. Fresh paneer doesn’t even come close ad it doesnt have the same consistancy, texture,etc… I think you’d be wasting time and ingredients to try as this will not turn out.
Hi Manjula Aunty,
I was wondering if cream cheese can be substituted with something else, maybe make fresh paneer and use that?
Thanks.
Amrita
Hi Aunty,
Thank you for the recipe. i wanted to know what is creme cheese? is it readily avaialble in India? do we have some other substitute for it?
thanks
I made this recipe last week. We all loved it. My daughters absolutely loved it. They are begging me to do it again today. Thank you.
Aunty,
This looks so yummy.Cant wait to try it soon. If I dont have a food processor can I make the filling and cracker base in a mixer-grinder. If not then what is the alternative.
Thanks
Priya,
Crackers you may do in mixer but mango and cream cheese just mix using a spoon, you do not want to whip the mango and cheese.
Priya,
You might try a hand mixer on high to beat the cream cheese mixture… Using a blender would not produce a good result because the inside surface is too small and you won’t get a light fluffy filling. Instead of fresh mango, I bet trying it with a little mango pulp would be good as well!
Hi Aunty,
I made this and taste-wise it came out perfect ( I had others try it as well!) but the look of it was not really so presentable. The crust didnt rise much on the sides and when I tried taking the cake out of the pan (used a regular cake pan), it crumbled into 4 pieces – I was trying to transfer it into a disposable tin so I could take it to a friend’s birthday. Please help as I am not sure what went wrong.
Thanks,
Lavina
Lavina,
In this recipe crust doesn’t rise stays the same and you can not pick up the whole cake in one piece you need to slice them and then pick up slice by slice.
Dear Aunty,
I also tried the recipe, everything came out well except the biscuits got burned on the sides. i used the middle tray….is there anyway i can avoid the biscuits from getting burnt?…would be it too much butter? how much would 1/3 cup butter be in grams?…
thanks much, best, D
ps also have tried yr apple crumble many many times 🙂 thanks..everyone loves it and its so easy and fast….once i ran out of oatmeal and used biscuits and raisins *with walnuts and it also came out really well..
Hi,
To avoid burning of the biscuits at the bottom of the cake pan–use a bundt cake pan and cover the sides of the pan with alluminium foil .Now place the alluminium foil covered bundt cake pan in a big oven safe tray half way filled with water and bake the cheese cake.
If my instructions are confusing-It is shown in food network,you can watch the video.
Sorry for the mistake.It is not a bundt cake pan.It is a springform pan tha you need to use.
Aunty, I made this yesterday. But when I served it, I noticed that the graham crust had burnt and was black at the bottom. Could you tell me why this happened? I followed your instructions carefully.
The mango cheesecake top was fine though.
Chandni,
May be you baked the cake on lower rack of oven.
Hi,
I wanted to know if instead of baking , can we refrigerate it? I am planning to prepare this cake for some guests during the weekend.
thanks
Lakshmi,
You will need to bake
Hello Aunty
from where can we buy unsalted butterand in wat brand
wat is graham?
Love mango in anyway…and this cheesecake with that awesome presentation looks decadent n sinfully yummy…wow aunty…
Placing the pan with the cheesecake in a tray of water and then, placing this in the oven helps bake it evenly without browned edges and prevents center portion from falling in.
I generally place my cheese cake in a tray of water to cut the browning of the edges and to not let it fall in. Hope this idea helps.
Wonderful recipe! Every time my friends make it, they add gelatin, so I can’t eat it.
Now, I’m so happy I can make eggless cheesecake. Thank you Manjula aunty.
I dont have a food processor ,can i use a mixy instead.
This looks so delicious. Will be trying recipe soon. Thank you Auntie !
Aunty thanks a lot for your rceipes, i have used your receipes to celebrate my kids birthday parties, Baklava Rolls and Rasmalai came out realy good, could you please show us receipe of parval ki mittai
Hello, aunty
can i use corn flour in this receipe? and where do i get this cream cheese is it a regular cheese which i use in pizza?
Corn starch and corn flour are one and the same thing as far as I know. Cream cheese you can find in the dairy section of the store where they put butter. It is different from the regular cheese which we use in pizza.
Cream Cheese can be find in different varieties:- Plain, Herbs, garlic etc in this case I think Plain Cream Cheese should be used.
Sarika,
Corn flour will not work but you can use Arrowroot.
thanks aunty.
Sarika,
I have heard that Corn starch is referred to as corn-flour in other countries. And it’s not “flour” of corn so to say. For example if you are looking to buy “corn-starch” in India you will go and ask for “corn-flour”. And you should be able to use it in this recipe. Do check for these things when you bring it home, it should be extremely fine white powder. This used mainly as a binding or thickening flour in Indo-chinese and also in vegan cooking.
In the U.S you refer to “corn flour” as “corn meal” and the other binding agent that we use is the “corn starch”. Hope this helped some instead of confusing you more:)
hey girls.. corn flour is the flour of corns ; while corn starch is the fine powdered form of the center part of corn and its literally a starch so can only be replaced by arrowroot but not corn flour…
thanks for the recipe aunty…
Sarika,
You’re absolutely right. Cornstarch, that we get in the US, is the same as Cornflour which is a very fine white powder, that we get in India. Corn flour is Maize flour and that is yellow in color and is different.
NSJ
Oops.. I meant Angel – you’re absolutely right!! 🙂
Sarika, philadelphia cream cheese is available at Walmart, Safeway, etc.
can we use mango pulp in case of fresh mango for this recepi. recepi looks tooo good and will try it out. pls let me know aunty
