Mango Mousse with Whipped Cream

Light, airy mango mousse with fresh fruit flavor and a cloud of whipped cream, perfect for dinner parties or as a refreshing dessert.

  • Total Time: 30
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ripe mangoes, peeled and chopped
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 cup heavy cream, cold
  • 1/2 cup plain yogurt
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 teaspoons gelatin
  • 1/4 cup water

Instructions

  1. Peel and chop the mangoes, then blend with lemon juice until smooth to make the mango puree.
  2. Sprinkle gelatin over the 1/4 cup cold water and let it bloom for 5 minutes; heat gently until fully dissolved and cool slightly.
  3. Whip the cold heavy cream with half the sugar and the vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
  4. Stir the remaining sugar into the yogurt, fold the yogurt into the mango puree, then fold in the dissolved gelatin until evenly combined.
  5. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mango-yogurt mixture in batches to keep the mousse airy.
  6. Spoon or pipe the mousse into serving glasses, cover, and refrigerate for 2–3 hours until set. Serve chilled with a dollop of whipped cream and diced mango if desired.

Notes

Use ripe mangoes for best flavor; adapt for dietary needs by using coconut cream, dairy-free yogurt, and agar-agar.
