Mango Mousse Trifle

“The king of the fruits," mango fruit is one of the most popular, nutritionally rich fruits with unique flavor, fragrance, taste, and heath promoting qualities. Mango is one of the delicious seasonal fruits grown in the tropics.

This trifle elevates the simple mango without much effort. I’ve left out trifle standards like custard and jelly here, but you can add more layers if you wish.

Ingredients
½ lb plain cake, cut into cubes
2 large mangoes, peeled and cut into large cubes
4 tablespoons caster sugar
1 cup mango puree, chilled 
1 cup whipping cream (heavy cream), chilled
½ to 1 cup icing sugar, sifted

Method
1. In a bowl, add mango and caster sugar. Mix well, cover, and leave for 20 minutes.
2. In a large glass serving bowl, add cake in an even layer and then top with mangoes.
3. Prepare the mousse: Using an electric beater, whip the cream until stiff peaks form (when you remove the beater from the cream, the peaks formed should hold their shape).
4. Add the chilled mango puree and ½ cup icing sugar, and continue to beat until well combined. taste the mousse and add more sugar if desired.
5. Spoon the mousse over the mangoes in an even layer.
6. Cover the trifle and refrigerate, preferably overnight.
7. Decorate with chopped or sliced mango and serve.
