Coconut Creams With Mango Lime Food

NO-CHURN MANGO-COCONUT-LIME ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Whisk the mango pulp, condensed milk, lime zest and juice, confectioners' sugar and coconut extract in a large bowl until smooth; set aside.
• Scoop the solids off the top of the can of coconut cream into a separate large bowl. (Discard the liquid; if any liquid has risen to the top, pour it off before scooping out the solids.) Break the solid coconut cream into small chunks, then add the heavy cream and beat with a mixer on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, 1 to 2 minutes. (There may be a few small chunks of coconut cream.)
• Fold about half of the whipped cream into the mango mixture with a rubber spatula until combined, then fold in the remaining whipped cream until no white streaks remain.
• Spoon the mixture into a freezer-safe 9-by-5-inch loaf pan or 2-quart baking dish. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze until firm and scoopable, at least 6 hours or overnight. Let soften about 20 minutes at room temperature before scooping.

COCONUT-LIME CHEESECAKE WITH MANGO COULIS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9-inch springform pan.
• Combine the coconut, gingersnap cookies, and melted butter in a bowl; mix until evenly moistened. Press the cookie mixture into the bottom and slightly up the sides of the prepared pan.
• Bake the crust in the preheated oven until browned and set, about 10 minutes. Set aside to cool.
• Reduce oven heat to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
• Beat the softened cream cheese in mixer bowl until smooth. With beater set to medium-low, slowly pour the condensed milk into the bowl, mixing only until just blended, stopping to scrape the sides of the bowl as necessary. Add the eggs, individually, allowing the first to blend into the mixture before adding the second; again, scrape the sides of the bowl as necessary.
• Pour about half of the cream cheese batter into a separate bowl. Stir the lime juice and lime zest into the portion in the new bowl; pour the batter over the crust in the springform pan, smoothing into an even layer.
• Stir the coconut extract through the remaining cream cheese batter; pour over the lime-flavored batter in the springfom pan, smoothing into an even layer.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the top of the cheesecake springs back when gently pressed, about 45 minutes. Turn oven heat off, but leave cheesecake inside with oven door slightly ajar until the oven cools completely. Refrigerate until completely chilled.
• Prepare mango coulis by pureeing the mango with sugar until smooth. If too thick, add a teaspoon of water at a time, using just enough to make pourable. Drizzle over cheesecake when plated.

LYCHEE COCONUT SORBET WITH MANGO AND LIME

• While sorbet is churning, toss together mango, zest, and remaining lime juice to taste (1/2 to 1 tablespoon).
• Serve scoops of sorbet over mango slices.
