Steps

1

Purée Mango

Peel the mangoes, cut the flesh from the pit, and place it in a blender. Add the lime juice and blend until smooth. Taste and add a little powdered sugar if needed, then mix well.

2

Whip Cream

In a cold bowl, whip the cold heavy cream with the powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to over-whip, as it can curdle.

3

Combine & Chill

Gently fold half of the whipped cream into the mango purée, then add the remaining cream and lightly mix until just combined, maintaining the airy texture. Spoon the mousse into glasses or bowls and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld and the mousse to set.

Extra Tips

Choose truly ripe mangoes, as they provide the sweet base and most intense flavor for the dessert.

Chill the heavy cream and the bowl you'll be whipping it in beforehand; this helps it whip up more easily and firmly.

Garnish with fresh mango cubes, mint leaves, or a pinch of lime zest before serving.
