Ingredients
Scale
Graham Cracker Layer:
- 1 pack (about 200g) graham crackers or digestive biscuits
Whipped Cream Mixture:
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Additional:
- 4 ripe mangoes, peeled and thinly sliced
- Extra crushed graham crackers for topping (optional)
Instructions
- Whip the Cream: In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form.
- Combine Ingredients: Add the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract to the whipped cream, continuing to whip until well combined and slightly thickened.
- Layer the Dessert: In an 8×8-inch dish, layer graham crackers at the bottom. Spread a layer of the cream mixture over the crackers, then arrange a layer of sliced mangoes on top. Repeat layers (crackers, cream, mangoes) until all ingredients are used, ending with a layer of cream and a final topping of mango slices and crushed graham crackers if desired.
- Chill: Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the layers to set.
- Serve: Serve chilled.
Notes
- Use ripe, sweet mangoes like Carabao or Ataulfo for best flavor.
- Freezing the dessert yields a firmer texture similar to an icebox cake.
- Add a squeeze of lime to the cream for a tangy twist.
