Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • A few drops of blue food coloring (optional)
  • 1 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon matcha powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1/2 cup mango puree

  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
  • Whipped cream (for decoration)
  • Crushed pistachios (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a round cake pan with parchment paper.
  2. Whisk together flour and sugar in one bowl. In another, whisk eggs and vanilla until frothy.
  3. Add milk and melted butter to the egg mixture. Combine wet and dry ingredients to form a smooth batter.
  4. Add blue food coloring if desired and mix until evenly colored. Pour into cake pan and bake 20–25 minutes.
  5. Let cake cool completely before adding other layers.
  6. For the cheesecake layer, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth.
  7. In a separate bowl, whisk heavy cream, matcha powder, and vanilla until combined.
  8. Gradually add matcha mix to cream cheese mixture and blend until smooth.
  9. Stir in dissolved gelatin and mix thoroughly. Pour over cooled sponge cake and refrigerate at least 2 hours to set.
  10. For the glaze, heat mango puree and sugar in a saucepan until sugar dissolves. Add lemon juice and remove from heat. Cool slightly.
  11. Pour glaze over the set matcha cheesecake layer. Refrigerate until the glaze is set.
  12. Top with whipped cream and garnish with crushed pistachios.
  13. Slice and serve chilled.

Notes

  • Ensure each layer is fully set before adding the next for clean layers and structure.
  • Use ripe mangoes for the glaze for the best flavor and color.
  • Gelatin must be fully dissolved to achieve a smooth and stable cheesecake layer.
