Best Dessert Recipes Using Mango: Quick and Easy Ideas, Try These Fruity Treats Using Fresh or Frozen Mango!

Okay, so I’ve been seeing mangoes everywhere lately, and it got me thinking – what can I actually make with these things? I love mangoes, don’t get me wrong, but eating them plain gets boring after a while. So I decided to dive into the world of mango desserts. Let me tell you, it’s been a wild ride.

First, I went online and just typed in “mango dessert recipes.” Big mistake. There are, like, a million recipes out there! I ended up spending, no joke, hours just scrolling through different websites. I finally narrowed it down to a few that sounded decent – and not too crazy complicated. You know me, I’m all about simple.

The First Try: Mango Sorbet

I started with mango sorbet. It seemed like the easiest one, and I figured I couldn’t mess it up too badly. The recipe basically just involved blending frozen mango chunks with some lime juice and a little bit of sugar. I threw everything into my blender and whizzed it up.

  • Step 1: Freeze those mango chunks! I used the pre-frozen ones from the grocery store – so convenient.
  • Step 2: Get yourself some limes and a little bit of sugar.
  • Step 3: Blend it all together until it’s smooth.

It was, surprisingly, pretty good! It tasted super refreshing, especially since it’s been hot as heck lately. My kids went crazy for it too, which is always a win in my book. Although, next time, I might add a tiny bit more sugar. Or maybe some honey? I’ll have to experiment.

Next Up: Mango Trifle (A Little More Work)

After the sorbet success, I felt a little more confident. So, I decided to tackle a mango trifle. This one had a few more steps, but it still looked manageable. I had to make some custard (which I’ve done before, so no biggie), then layer it with ladyfingers, whipped cream, and, of course, lots of fresh mango slices.

  • Step 1: Make the custard. There are a ton of recipes online, so find one that works for you.
  • Step 2: Get some ladyfingers and some good quality whipping cream.
  • Step 3: Slice up those fresh, juicy mangoes!
  • Step 4: Layer everything in a nice glass bowl – ladyfingers, custard, mango, whipped cream, repeat!

It took a bit longer than the sorbet, but oh boy, was it worth it! The combination of the creamy custard, the soft ladyfingers, and the sweet mango was just heavenly. My husband, who’s not even a big dessert person, went back for seconds. It’s definitely a crowd-pleaser, perfect for a dinner party or something.

One more: Mango Cheesecake

I got some cream cheese that was about to expire, so a mango cheesecake was made. This is probably the most difficult, but not by much.

  • Step 1: Make the cheesecake base. I just crushed some biscuits and mixed them with melted butter.
  • Step 2: Whisk together the cream cheese, sugar, eggs, and a bit of mango puree for the filling.
  • Step 3: Pour the filling over the base and bake it in the oven. This took the longest time, around an hour.
  • Step 4: While it cools, make a simple mango topping by simmering some mango chunks with sugar.

Once the cheesecake was completely cooled, I poured the mango topping over it. I have to say that I was a little nervous about this one, but it turned out pretty good! The cheesecake was smooth and creamy, and the mango topping added a nice tanginess.

So, yeah, that was my mango dessert adventure. I definitely learned a lot, and I’m excited to try even more recipes. If you’re a mango lover like me, I highly recommend giving these a try. They’re not as hard as you might think, and the results are totally worth the effort! And hey, if I can do it, you can too!
