Not the first time making cheesecake but the first time I succeeded in making it: from the outside appearance to the taste, I'm content with this time.
Adjusted recipe based on the original http://bossacafez.blogspot.com/2006/03/cherry-cheesecake.html
Ingredients
Base
120g biscuits, crushed
100g butter, melted
Filling
200g cream cheese, room temperature
130g icing sugar
150g quark (I used rahka, kind of Finnish quark)

2 tbsps lemon juice + 6 tbsps boiling water
2 tbsps vanilla sugar
Top jelly layer
300 ml mango juice
2 tbsps caster sugar
1,5 tbsp gelatine powder
1. Mix crushed biscuits with butter, press firmly onto cake base and chill for 30 mins.
2. Double boil gelatine powder, lemon juice and water. keep warm.
3. Whip whipping cream using high speed until 70% stiff or mousse state. set aside.
4. Whip cream cheese, quark, icing sugar, lemon zest & milk until well combined.
5. Blend in gelatine solution. stir well.
6. Add in whipping cream, and stir until well combined.
7. Slowly pour cheese mixture into the spring form (I used the form 20cm/8")
8. Chill for 45 mins until a little firm.
9. To make jelly layer, boil all ingredients using low heat until gelatine & sugar has totally dissolved. leave to cool.
10. Slowly spoon over cake and chill for 3 to 4 hours. Cake taste best overnight.
