Ingredients

Instructions

Prepare Mango Puree:

  1. Prepare Mango Puree:

    If using fresh mango, peel and chop them into chunks. If using frozen mango, let them thaw for a few minutes.

    In a blender or food processor, puree the mango chunks until smooth. You should have about 1 ½ cups of mango puree.

  2. Combine Ingredients:

    In a large bowl, combine the mango puree with the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract (if using), and a pinch of salt. Mix well until everything is thoroughly combined.

  3. Whip Heavy Cream:

    In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.

  4. Fold Cream into Mango Mixture:

    Gently fold the whipped cream into the mango mixture until fully incorporated. Be careful not to deflate the whipped cream.

  5. Transfer to Freezer-Safe Container:

    Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container and smooth the top with a spatula.

  6. Freeze:

    Cover the container with plastic wrap or a lid and freeze for at least 6 hours, or until firm.

  7. Serve:

    Once the ice cream is set, scoop and serve! Optionally, you can garnish with fresh mango slices or a sprinkle of shredded coconut. Enjoy your delicious homemade mango ice cream!
