No-bake Mango cheesecake

I had my first piece of cheesecake at Cheesecake factory; and with the first piece, it stole my heart. Never having a sweet tooth for creamy cakes, the instant liking and craving for the creamy cheesecakes came as a surprise. My favorite is the classic vanilla cheesecake, with a strawberry coulis. However, I like tasting different cheesecake flavors. Therefore, this time I ventured to combine the flavor of my favorite fruit mango with the creamy goodness of cheesecake. The best thing is when I can enjoy a homemade cheesecake in the flavor of my choice and yet do not have to go through all the hassle of baking etc. This chilled no-bake mango cheesecake was delicious in its creaminess, and the drizzle of mango pulp on the top took the yumminess of the cake a notch higher!
