- Beat cream cheese, yogurt and honey with a mixer (egg beaters). As the batter gets smoother, add sugar spoonful by spoonful, followed by lemon juice, lemon rind, egg by egg, gelatin solution, and vinegar. Pour over the crust and bake for 45 minutes.
- Beat egg, mix with gelatin and water. Set aside.
- Place mango, lemon juice, lemon rind, cinnamon, sugar, and salt in the saucepan over high heat and keep stirring until it becomes mango compote. As the fruit continues to simmer it will lose a lot of water, so keep a jug of water next to you and add 1/4 cupfuls of water every other minute to keep its consistency. Add balsamic vinegar while cooking.
- When the compote is cooked, lower the heat. Add the egg-gelatin mixture spoonful by spoonful while continuing to stir the compote thoroughly. Simmer over low heat. Add honey and rum, mix well.
- Pour mango topping on top of the baked cheesecake and allow to set. Serve chilled.

"Leave me alone I'm a twentysomething," thus sings Jamie Cullum. I guess that song kind of describes how I'm feeling about life right now. Currently taking a break off college in order to lay the foundations and build the family business. I'm a low profile beauty & wellness consultant associated with a world-class supplier. I enjoy the boisterous laughter of a crowd of friends or a heart-to-heart with people I love, great books, massages at the spa, gourmet coffee (although I mostly stick to Americano these days), jazz radio, rock concerts, wrestling in the swimming pool with my buddies, camping trips/retreats away from the big city, and impressing people with the secret cooking talent that i have. I also enjoy casual salsa or otherwise dancing with a partner (only good males, please).
