Ingredients

  • 3 cups ripe mango chunks 1/2 cup sugar 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom 1 cup heavy cream 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine the mango chunks, sugar, cinnamon, and cardamom. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until the mangoes have softened and released their juices.
  2. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature. Once cooled, use an immersion blender or food processor to puree the mango mixture until smooth.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the heavy cream and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
  4. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mango puree, being careful not to overmix. Divide the mixture into serving dishes and chill for at least 1 hour before serving.
