Ingredients
  

For the mousse
  • 7 oz Mango (from about 2 medium mangoes) Use ripe, fragrant mangoes for the best flavor.
  • 1 cup Heavy cream (cold) Chill the mixing bowl and whisk for best results.
  • 4 tablespoons Powdered sugar Superfine granulated sugar can be used as a substitute.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla bean paste (or extract) Enhances flavor; optional.
  • to taste Mint leaves (for decoration) Use fresh mint for garnish.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Peel and cut the mangoes into cubes. Place in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Set aside.
  2. In a chilled mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla (if using) until stiff peaks form.
  3. Gently fold the mango puree into the whipped cream until fully combined and no streaks remain.
Piping and Chilling
  1. Transfer the mousse to a piping bag. If it feels too runny, refrigerate the piping bag for 1 hour before using.
  2. Pipe into serving glasses or bowls.
  3. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Serving
  1. Just before serving, garnish with fresh mango cubes and mint leaves.

Notes

For a contrast of texture, add a crisp tuile, coconut brittle, or a sprinkling of toasted pistachios. The mousse is especially delightful after a spicy meal.
