Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 cup diced mango fresh or frozen- see notes
- 1 tablespoon orange juice
- 2-3 teaspoons lime zest
- 4 ounces mascarpone chilled
- ⅓ cup powdered sugar depending on preference
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup heavy whipping cream chilled
Instructions
- Add the diced mango, orange juice and lime zest to a blender and blend until smooth. Set aside.
- In a medium mixing bowl or bowl of a stand mixer, add the mascarpone, powdered sugar, vanilla and salt. Beat with an electric mixer until well combined, about 30 seconds.
- Add in the heavy cream and beat until stiff peaks form- about 3 minutes on medium speed.
- Fold in 1/3 of the mango puree, then another 1/3, fold gently to combine, then add in the final 1/3.
- Once mixed, transfer to an air tight container and let set in the fridge for at least 3 hours before serving. Serve with more fresh mango, whipped cream, mint and enjoy!
Notes
If using frozen mango, just first let it thaw, then pour off any excess liquid before blending.
