Mango Mousse
- 150 ml heavy cream whipped
- 1 cup mango puree
- 250 gms Philadelphia cream cheese
- 1/4 cup caster sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Base
- 8-10 pieces Digestive biscuits
- 2.5 tbsp butter melted
Topping
- 1/2 cup diced mangoes or any other fruit diced
- mint leaves optional
To make the base
Pulse digestive biscuits until crumbed (alternatively place them in a plastic ziplock bag and go to town with a rolling pin or break into pieces and use a pestle to further break it down into crumbs)
Combine biscuit crumbs with melted butter
Divide up your base in 4 glass cups or jars and press down evenly. Place jars in the fridge while you work on the mousse.
To make the mango mousse
Combine cream cheese, 1/4 cup sugar, vanilla extract and mango puree with a hand blender until smooth. You don't want any lumps basically. Set aside.
In another bowl, whisk heavy cream until you get soft peaks.
Fold the whipped cream into the mango cheese mixture until it's well combined. Don't over-mix or pulse it. You want a light, airy mixture.
To assemble
Spoon in the mango cheesecake mousse over the biscuit base. Refrigerate for 2 hours.
Before serving, top with diced mango or any other fruit (blueberries are a nice option + no chopping required yay!) and a mint leaf or two. Enjoy!
