What Is A Mango Float?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Mango icebox cake, mango royale, or mango float is a Filipino dessert. Made with cream, fruit, and graham crackers, the no-bake mango dessert can trace its origins back to the Philippines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Loved for its refreshing and fruity flavors, the graham cake is believed to have been influenced by Western-style icebox cakes, which typically consist of layers of cookies or crackers and whipped cream, refrigerated until the ingredients meld together into a cake-like texture.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Recipe Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cookies: The cookie layer is the spine of mango float recipes. Typically, it is made with Graham crackers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you don\u2019t want to make the traditional mango\u00a0graham\u00a0cake, use\u00a0<\/strong>ladyfingers ( like I did), Marie biscuits, digestives,\u00a0or even homemade rusks<\/a>! Pick what\u2019s in the pantry, I say.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I like textural play in my desserts. That hide-and-seek of creamy and crunchy, so I really didn\u2019t feel the need for\u00a0sugar <\/strong>syrup to soften\u00a0the ladyfingers. If you prefer a softer cookie base, feel free to drizzle some over the\u00a0cookies\u00a0you use before adding the whipped cream layer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mango:<\/strong> Use fresh, ripe mangoes, whatever is easily available to you.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cream:<\/strong> Heavy whipping cream is the best for this recipe. Please make sure it's chilled for the best results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sweetened condensed milk:<\/strong> This adds sweetness and richness to the dessert. You can easily swap with a vegan condensed milk<\/a>, if you wish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How To Make Mango Float?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Step 1: <\/strong>Whip your chilled cream to a soft peak consistency. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 2:<\/strong> Whisk in the condensed milk, folding it gently into the whipped cream until well combined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 3<\/strong>: Peel and cube your mangoes into small pieces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 4:<\/strong> Find a freezer-friendly dish and then start assembling the mango icebox cake in three steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Line the bottom with ladyfingers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Layer half of your whipped cream on top of the biscuits.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Top with chopped mangoes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Add another layer of cookies, then the remaining half of the cream<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Step 5:<\/strong> Decorate with mango puree swirls and chopped mangoes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Step 6:<\/strong>\u00a0Stash the whole concoction in the fridge or freezer, preferably overnight. I prefer to freeze this every time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
