Ingredients
- 3 large Ripe mangoes
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 4 leaves Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Peel and dice the mangoes into small cubes, ensuring you remove all the flesh from the pit.
Step 2
Place the diced mangoes in a blender or food processor along with the granulated sugar and lemon juice. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Set aside.
Step 3
In a chilled bowl, use a handheld or stand mixer to whip the heavy whipping cream until it begins to thicken.
Step 4
Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the whipped cream, and continue whipping until soft peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip.
Step 5
Gently fold the mango puree into the whipped cream using a spatula. Do this gradually to create a marbled or swirled effect, or mix completely for a uniform color and flavor.
Step 6
Spoon the mixture into serving glasses or bowls. Tap the glasses lightly to remove any air bubbles and smooth the tops with a spoon.
Step 7
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to chill and set.
Step 8
Garnish with fresh mint leaves before serving for an added touch of freshness and color.
