Description

A light and refreshing dessert featuring mango and coconut flavors, perfect for individual servings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup ripe mango puree
  • 1 cup full-fat coconut milk, chilled overnight
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon lime juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)
  • Toasted coconut flakes for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Scoop the thick cream from the top of the chilled coconut milk can, leaving the water behind. Place the coconut cream in a chilled bowl.
  2. Whip the coconut cream with an electric mixer until fluffy.
  3. Gradually add the powdered sugar, lime juice, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined and smooth.
  4. Gently fold in the mango puree until no streaks remain.
  5. Spoon the mousse into individual serving cups or glasses.
  6. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until set.
  7. Garnish with fresh mint leaves and toasted coconut flakes before serving, if desired.

Notes

  • Ensure your coconut milk is full-fat and has been chilled for at least 12 hours to allow the cream to separate.
  • Adjust sweetness to your preference by adding more or less powdered sugar.
  • For a firmer mousse, you can add 1 teaspoon of agar-agar powder dissolved in a tablespoon of water to the mango puree before folding it into the coconut cream.
