How to Make Mango Mousse

This Mango Mousse Recipe is so incredibly easy and the enzymes from the mango make it so that the mousse is thickened before you’ve even put it in the fridge. You could eat this delicious dessert as soon as you’ve put it altogether but I personally think it’s better chilled. 

You can use frozen or fresh mango making it even easier to make this mango mousse recipe. You will add the mango, orange juice, lime juice and condensed milk into a blender and blend on high for about one minute as shown in the first photo below.

You will beat the cream in a mixer until it forms high stiff peaks and is quite thick like in the 2nd photo above. You will then add in small portions the mango mixture and gently fold it into the whipped cream and it should look similar to the mix below. As you can see it’s already thicker and a bit “pudding like”.

Spoon it into whatever you’d like to serve it in, we used small dessert jars and place in the fridge where it will thicken up a bit more and it’s ready to serve. You can get similar dessert jars like ours on Amazon. 

What toppings can you add to Mango Mousse?

This recipe, it’s delicious without toppings but I admit I like to try out a few different things to see what’s yummy. So here are some of my favorite toppings:

• Chopped mango
• Whipping cream
• Flaky coconut
• Mint leaves (I just used those for aesthetics and didn’t eat them)

Do you need gelatin, eggs or agar agar?

As you can see this mousse recipe is egg free, gelatin free and doesn’t have agar agar either. I’ve seen some recipes with gelatin and agar agar. It’s entirely up to you if you want a thicker mousse. I personally found this thick enough and the taste is so mango-tastic (that’s a word right?) that I didn’t want to mess with it.

Other reasons we love this Recipe for Mango Mousse

In addition to it being no-bake and easy to make, we also love that it only requires FIVE ingredients, ones that you can easily get at the grocery store if you don’t have them on hand.

This dessert is creamy, fresh, fruit and if you have a sweet craving it hits that too. You must like the taste of mango though but who doesn’t love mango? Okay some don’t but for those of us that do, so delicious and so easy to make it might be dangerous lol. 

Okay, okay I know you want to get to the recipe so here we go.

Easy Mango Mousse Recipe

Print

Mango lovers rejoice! This Mango Mousse Recipe is a refreshing, sweet, creamy yet tangy tropical treat that is easy to make!

Prep Time 7 minutes

Additional Time 2 hours

Total Time 2 hours 7 minutes

Ingredients

• 4 to 4 ½ cups chopped mango (fresh or frozen & frozen can be defrosted)
• 4 tbsp orange juice
• 4 tbsp squeezed lime juice
• 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
• 3 cups (cold) heavy cream

Instructions

1. In a blender combine the mango lime juice, orange juice and condensed milk. Puree on medium to medium-high (depending your blender, you may need to go to a higher speed setting) until it is all smooth. Approximately one minute.
2. While it’s blending, using a medium-sized bowl, beat the cream with a mixer on high until soft to semi-stiff peaks form, don’t over mix so that it’s thick like butter lol.
3. In small pours, about a quarter of the mix at a time gently fold the mango puree mix into the whipped cream. I generally use a spatula to fold in the mango puree. Take your time as you don’t want the cream to go flat. Make sure to gently scrape down the sides of the bowl and fold into the middle.
4. Repeat until all the mango puree is folded and incorporated fully in the whipped cream.  
5. Depending on the size of your dessert containers you’ll spoon or pour them in. I can get about 6 not filled right to the top with the dessert jars pictured.  
6. Refrigerate for a minimum 2 hours.
7. Garnish (optional) with chopped mango, whipping cream, coconut and/or mint leaves.

Notes

One cup of chopped mango will be roughly half a pound. If you're using frozen mango defrost it for at least 45 minutes ahead of time.
