Ingredients

Scale

Primary Ingredients

  • 3-4 ripe sweet mangoes (preferably Ataulfo or Carabao) peeled and thinly sliced
  • 2 packs of graham crackers (about 200-250 grams)
  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 cups all-purpose cream or heavy whipping cream, whipped to soft peaks
  • 1/2 cup evaporated milk

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cream Mixture: In a mixing bowl, gently fold together the whipped cream, sweetened condensed milk, and evaporated milk until well combined and smooth. This creamy base will bind all layers for a luscious, harmonious dessert.
  2. Slice the Mangoes: Peel and cut ripe mangoes into thin, even slices to ensure consistent flavor and texture in every bite.
  3. Layer the Graham Crackers: In a rectangular or square dish, arrange a neat layer of graham crackers, which will absorb moisture from the cream while maintaining structure.
  4. Spread Cream and Add Mango: Spoon a generous, even layer of the cream mixture over the graham crackers, then layer the mango slices on top to fully cover the cream.
  5. Repeat Layers: Continue layering graham crackers, cream mixture, and mango slices until the dish is filled (typically 3-4 layers). Finish with a top layer of cream and mango slices for a visually appealing presentation.
  6. Chill and Set: Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. This allows the flavors to meld and the dessert to firm up perfectly for serving.

Notes

  • Use ripe but firm mangoes to prevent soggy layers and maintain sweetness.
  • Whip the cream to soft peaks to achieve ideal lightness without overwhipping.
  • Ensure even layering of cream and mango slices for consistent flavor and texture.
  • Chill thoroughly to let the dessert set properly and enhance taste.
  • Cover the dessert tightly to avoid absorbing refrigerator odors.
