Oh, this sounds delish! I'm definitely putting this on my menu plan! UPDATE: Made this today and it is worth every second of effort! LOVE the "macaroon" type crust, the flavor, and the mango topping is the perfect accent!

Not a heavy cheesecake taste; we loved the macaroon crust and the flavor of the mango & coconut!
