Better known as Mango Float to others, this is perhaps one of the easiest dessert recipes out there. All you need are sweet ripe mangoes, others recommend canned peaches as substitutes but for me it's mangoes or nothing. It's so easy to make even kids can do it. In fact the one in the photo above was entirely prepared by my three little chefs. My youngest laid out the base, my eldest scooped out the mango balls, my second daughter poured the cream and all three did the whisking. If you have kids this one would be a perfect bonding project in the kitchen with them. So simple, minimal mess and the recipe is so forgiving as compared with all those measurements in baking. Even if it gets sloppy I assure you the end result will still be so yummy that your little ones will be very proud of themselves. Of course you can always enjoy this dessert even without the kids' help eh.
What's In It:
graham crackers
*condensed milk
*all-purpose cream/ table cream (if not available try substituting w/ whipping or heavy cream)
ripe mangoes
*The ratio of condensed milk and cream would be 1:2 (1 part milk to 2 parts cream)
Chill the milk, cream and mangoes in the fridge at least overnight. Line the bottom of your baking dish/pan with graham crackers. Whip the cream into soft peaks. Slowly add the milk and continue whipping until well blended. Pour cream mixture over graham crackers. Cover and chill in the fridge while preparing the mangoes. Scoop mangoes into balls or cut into slivers. Arrange the mangoes over the cream. Cover and chill again at least overnight so as to give time for the crackers to soften and the cream to set. But if you have impatient kids around that wouldn't matter, to them it would still the same anyway regardless of the chilling time.
