On a recent trip to my island Puerto Rico I visited this amazing Restaurant at Old San Juan Raíces. On their menu I saw the Passion Fruit Cheesecake. Unfortunately on the two occasions that I visited the Restaurant the Cheesecake was not available..... That's when I decided to search for this recipe and I found this amazing one. Believe me passion fruit it's my favorite fruit and cheesecakes are my favorite desert. I am so grateful that my passion fruit cheesecake came out perfect, and probably better than the one one that I never had at this restaurant....

This is a great cheesecake recipe! Very easy to make and the trick of letting it sit in the oven with the residual heat works to reduce the crack. Also, it's not as thick or sweet as normal cheesecake; it's light and summery. The passion fruit and mango flavors work perfectly!

A great summer dessert! The passion fruit and mango do exactly as the recipe says: lightens otherwise rich cheesecake. The only difficulty was finding passion fruit, so I went on a hunt for passion fruit juice, which was also difficult. I live in NC, so it is typically unavailable, but with our Asian markets and specialty grocers, I thought it would be easier. Instead there were mixtures of juice using passion fruit. You may have to hunt it for it as I ended up finding a mixed fruit juice, that had passion fruit as one of the 1st 3 ingredients (found at the Asian market. So, I wasn't able to use the pulp or seeds, but it didn't really make a difference taste-wise. Preparation is long, but is worth the time, because the result is not too sweet or rich, but still has the delicious cheesecake taste that we all love in cheesecakes! The mango coulis and topping are also excellent complements. Next time, I may decrease the amount of eggs by one because it had a custard taste to it, although my brother said he didn't taste that... maybe depends on your taste buds.
