Ingredients

• 2 cups Heavy cream
• 2 large Ripe mangoes
• 0.5 cups Granulated sugar
• 4 Egg yolks
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 4 tablespoons Granulated sugar (for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Prepare a baking dish large enough to hold 4 ramekins. Fill the dish with enough warm water to cover about halfway up the sides of the ramekins.

Step 2

Peel and dice the mangoes, then puree them in a blender or food processor until smooth. Strain the mango puree through a fine mesh sieve to remove any fibers, producing about 1 cup of mango puree.

Step 3

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, warm the heavy cream until it just begins to simmer. Do not let it boil. Remove from heat and let it cool for 5 minutes.

Step 4

In a mixing bowl, whisk the egg yolks, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until the mixture is pale and slightly thickened.

Step 5

Slowly pour the warm heavy cream into the egg yolk mixture while whisking constantly to temper the eggs and prevent curdling.

Step 6

Stir in the mango puree, mixing until fully incorporated and the custard is smooth.

Step 7

Strain the custard mixture through a sieve to ensure a silky texture. Divide the mixture evenly among the 4 ramekins.

Step 8

Place the ramekins into the prepared baking dish with water. Carefully transfer the dish to the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the custards are set but still jiggly in the center.

Step 9

Remove the ramekins from the water bath and allow them to cool to room temperature. Then, refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until completely chilled.

Step 10

Just before serving, sprinkle 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar evenly over the top of each custard. Use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar until it forms a golden, glassy crust. Alternatively, you can place the ramekins under the broiler for a few minutes, watching closely to avoid burning.

Step 11

Allow the caramelized tops to cool for a couple of minutes, then serve and enjoy the creamy mango-flavored custard with a satisfying crack of the sugar crust.
