Ingredients
Scale
- For the Crust:
- 24 pieces graham crackers (20–24 pieces)
- For the Cream Mixture:
- 500 ml all-purpose cream (2 packs)
- 300 ml sweetened condensed milk (1 can)
- For the Mango Layer:
- 4 small-medium ripe mangoes
Instructions
- hill the Cream:
- Chill the all-purpose cream in the fridge overnight or in the freezer for 30 minutes for a lighter and fluffier texture.
- Prepare the Mangoes:
- Peel the mangoes and cut the flesh away from the pit. Lay the mango halves flat-side down on a cutting board and slice the flesh lengthwise into thin strips. Set aside.
- Prepare the Cream Mixture:
- Transfer the chilled all-purpose cream into a large bowl. Whip it with a hand mixer until it doubles in volume for a lighter texture.
- Gradually add the sweetened condensed milk to the cream, mixing until well blended.
- Assemble the Mango Float:
- Line the bottom of a rectangular or square glass dish (8×8 or 6×6) with a layer of graham crackers.
- Pour and spread ¼ of the cream mixture over the crackers, then top with a layer of mango slices.
- Repeat the layering process until you have 4 layers, ending with the cream mixture and mango slices on top. Arrange the mango slices on the top layer in an overlapping pattern for a decorative touch.
- Chill and Serve:
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least 3-5 hours to allow the layers to set completely. The graham crackers should become soft and fluffy.
- Optionally, freeze before serving for a firmer texture.
Notes
- For a firmer texture, freeze the Mango Float for a few hours before serving.
- Adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of sweetened condensed milk to taste.
