Cheesecake Bar is an easy dessert you can make at home. They look elegant and taste so delicious! A combination of a cake at the bottom and cheesecake on top. Pefect!
After making Langka Cheesecake Bars, Ube Cheesecake Bars and Red Velvet Cheesecake Bars, I thought of preparing Mango Cheesecake Bars this time. If you have tried those three bars I just mentioned, you will surely love this as well. A treat the whole gang will enjoy. The cake is not overly sweet and the texture is perfect. It has this soft and spongy cake base with creamy cheesecake on top. The swirl effect on top is what makes it look elegant and it is not hard to make at all.

A skewer or toothpick can be used to drag on the cake batter to make this beautiful design on top. You can drag the toothpick in any direction you like or however you want the swirl to look like. It's up to you and it's super easy! 
This dessert looks sweet but they are not sweet at all. They can easily be shared and served when cut as bars. Perfect for the any occasion or holidays!
​The key for a delicious cheesecake bars is to not overbake or else the cake will be dry. I baked this at 350F for about 30 minutes. The cheesecake on top has just set, do not let it crack or else the cake at the bottom will be dry. ​

MANGO CHEESECAKE BARS RECIPE

Ingredients:
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup mango jam
  • 1 tsp mango flavor 
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened at room temperature
  • 3 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract


VIDEO TUTORIAL: 

  • Preheat oven to 350F. Line an 8 x 8 baking pan with parchment paper and grease. Set aside. 
  • In a large bowl, combine butter and sugar. Beat until well combined. Add 2 eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add mango jam and mango flavor. Beat until well combined. 
  • Place a sieve over the mixing bowl and add flour, baking powder and salt. Sift then stir using a spatula just until combined. Do not overmix. Reserve about 1/3 cup cake batter and set aside. 
  • Pour the cake batter onto the prepared pan. Spread evenly then set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese until creamy.  Add sugar and beat well. Add one egg and vanilla extract. Beat until mixture is smooth. Pour cream cheese mixture over the cake batter and spread evenly.
  • Transfer the reserved mixture into a piping bag. Cut the tip to make a small hole. Pipe the ube cake mixture diagonally onto the cream cheese mixture. Drag a clean toothpick or bamboo skewer through the cake batter to get a pretty swirl.
  • Bake for about 30 minutes or until the top is nearly set. Cool completely before serving.
  • Please see TIPS and NOTES below and make sure to watch the video attached above. 
  • Enjoy! ​​
  • A 6x6 square pan can also be used if you want a taller cheesecake bar. 
  • I used store-bought mango jam in a bottle but you can also make your own by combining ripe mangoes and sugar ( add according to your liking) and cook until mangoes are very soft (mushy) and caramelizes.
  • Mango flavor is optional but I suggest to add as it adds flavor and great color. 
  • Make sure to check your oven before the set time. Oven temperature varies. This dessert is done as soon as cheesecake topping has just set.  Do not let it crack or else the cake will be dry. In short do not overbake.
  • When cutting, drip the knife on hot water and wipe with paper towels. This will avoid the cheesecake from sticking onto the knife. 
  • Store the Ube Cheesecake Bars in an air tight container. They can last for up to 5 or more days chilled in the fridge. Each bar can be warmed again in the microwave for about 10-12 seconds. The cake will be soft again.

Hello Janette
Can you use mango purée instead of mango jam in this recipe? Mango jam is not too easy to find.
Cheers
