1 1/4 cups sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon vanilla

  • Meanwhile, in large bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar, cornstarch and vanilla with electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a time, just until blended. Stir in sour cream and mango. Pour filling over crust.
  • Bake at 300°F 1 hour 20 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes or until edge of cheesecake is set at least 2 inches from edge of pan but center of cheesecake still jiggles slightly when moved. Turn oven off; open oven door at least 4 inches. Let cheesecake remain in oven 30 minutes. Run small metal spatula around edge of pan to loosen cheesecake. Cool on cooling rack 30 minutes. Refrigerate at least 6 hours or overnight.
