Ingredients
  

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

Instructions
 

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!
