Mango Mousse




Looking for a yummy dessert - Try this very simple Mango mousse recipe.

Method and Ingredients:

1 Pint of Heavy Whipping Cream
1/2 cup sugar
1 Can Mango Pulp
2 packets of Gelatin (7oz each)

1. Add the mango pulp to a pot.  Add the gelatin packets and whisk together. There should  be no lumps of the gelatin. If lumps do form, use a spatula and dissolve them.  Turn the flame on low and heat the mango pulp.  Keep stirring. Keep the flame low throughout this process.  The mango pulp should be hot but you dont want it to boil like water either. Now wait till it cool completely. I left mine out for an hour or so.
2. Pour whipping cream in a mixing bowl.  Add the sugar. Using an electric beater, beat the whipping cream until it turns into a froth. The cream will start looking like whipped cream. hmm I wonder if i could use Cool Whip next time and omit this step :) The texture you are looking for should resemble a mousse like texture which is called "peaks" in the baking world. If you put you finger in it and the cream holds upright, its ready.
3. Now, add the cream to the cooled mango pulp. Using a spatula, gently FOLD the cream into the mango pulp. Do not over mix.  Fold until both are incorporated well. 
4. Pour into a 9 by 13 casserole pan and refridgerate for few hours.

Mango Mousse is ready ............
