# Instructions:

01 - Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C). Line a 9-inch (23cm) springform pan with parchment paper in the bottom and grease the sides. Combine the cookie crust ingredients in a bowl and press the mixture into the bottom of the pan. For the macaroon crust, mix coconut, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt in a bowl. Beat the egg whites to stiff peaks, fold into the coconut mixture, and spread evenly over the cookie crust. Bake for 15-20 minutes until lightly browned. Set aside to cool. Prepare the pan for a water bath by wrapping the outside with aluminum foil to prevent leaks.
02 - Reduce the oven temperature to 300°F (148°C). Beat cream cheese, sugar, and flour on low speed until smooth. Gradually add sweetened condensed milk and sour cream, mixing until combined. Add coconut and vanilla extract. Incorporate eggs one at a time, mixing slowly. Divide the filling evenly into two bowls. Add mango puree, mango flavor, and mango extract to one bowl and mix. Add key lime juice to the other bowl and mix. Layer key lime filling over the crust, followed by the mango filling. Place the pan in a water bath and bake for 1 hour 15 minutes. Let cool in the oven for 30 minutes with the door closed, then crack the door for 30 minutes. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight.
03 - Beat egg yolks in a bowl. Combine sugar, cornstarch, and milk in a saucepan and cook over medium heat until thick. Gradually incorporate a small amount of the hot mixture into the egg yolks before adding back into the saucepan. Cook until thickened, then add butter, mango extract, and mango flavor. Spread the topping on the cheesecake and refrigerate.
04 - Bloom gelatin in water for 5 minutes. Microwave until melted. Stir in sugar and mango puree. Let thicken for 10 minutes before spreading over the cream topping. Refrigerate for 2-3 hours until layers are firm. Serve chilled.
