Crust - Combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar in a mixing bowl. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9 x 9-inch square cake tin to form a crust. Chill for 15 minutes.
1 ½ cups Graham cracker crumbs , ½ cup Unsalted butter, 2 tbsp Granulated sugar
Gelatin - Sprinkle gelatin over cold water and let it sit for 5 minutes to soften. Heat the softened gelatin in a microwave at 10-second intervals until it becomes liquid. Set aside to cool until barely warm.
1½ tbsp Gelatin powder, ⅓ cup Cold water
Cheesecake filling - In a stand mixer, with the paddle attachment, beat the cream cheese, sour cream, and sugar until smooth. Next, add the vanilla extract and combine well. Then, add the gelatin and mix well. Pro tip - The best way to add the gelatin is to temper it by adding a few tablespoons of cream cheese mixture. Then, count it all back to the bowl and combine well.
3 cups Cream cheese, 1 cup Sour cream, ¾ cup Powdered sugar, 1 tsp Lemon juice, ½ tsp Lemon zest, 1 tsp Vanilla extract
Divide - Divide the cheesecake filling into two portions. 2/3 in one bowl for the mango layer and the rest in another bowl for the vanilla filling.
Mango layer - Add the mango puree to the bowl with 2/3 filling and combine well. Then, pour the mango cheesecake mixture over the prepared crust in the prepared pan and smooth the surface. Place the pan in the refrigerator and set it for at least 2 hours.

Vanilla layer - Carefully pour the vanilla cheesecake mixture over the set mango layer, smoothing the surface. Place the pan back in the refrigerator and set it for another 2 hours.
Mango jello topping - Combine the mango puree, sugar, gelatin, and remaining water in a saucepan. Heat it over medium heat until the sugar and gelatin is completely dissolved. Strain through a sieve and let it cool for a few minutes. Then, carefully pour over the set vanilla cheesecake layer.
