Ingredients List

  • 2 Ripe Mangoes (Alphonso or Honey mangoes)
  • 1 cup Full-fat Coconut Cream (Chilled overnight)
  • 1 tbsp Pure Maple Syrup (Optional)
  • ½ tsp Vanilla Extract
  • Fresh Mint & Toasted Coconut for garnish

Easy Step-by-Step Preparation

  1. Prepare the Coconut Cream: Open your chilled can of coconut cream and scoop out only the thick, white solids from the top. Whisk by hand or with a mixer until fluffy and soft peaks form.
  2. The Mango Base: Peel and pit the mangoes. Blend one mango until smooth to create a vibrant puree. Dice the second mango into small, bite-sized cubes.
  3. Sweeten (Optional): Gently fold your maple syrup and vanilla extract into the whipped coconut cream.
  4. The Layers: In two chilled glasses, start with a layer of mango puree. Add a layer of the coconut cream, followed by the fresh mango cubes.
  5. Finish & Serve: Top with toasted coconut flakes and a sprig of fresh mint. Serve immediately for the best texture!
The Whipping Secret: For the fluffiest Mango coconut cream dessert, place your mixing bowl in the freezer for 10 minutes before whipping the cream. This keeps the fat stable and ensures a “cloud-like” consistency.

Variations & Storage

Make it a Parfait: Add a layer of granola or toasted oats for a crunchy breakfast twist.

Frozen Style: Blend everything together and freeze in molds for a budget-friendly tropical popsicle.

Chia Boost: Stir in 2 tablespoons of chia seeds into the mango puree for a fiber-rich healthy lunchbox treat.
