ingredients
crumble
- 1 sleeve graham crackers 9 total crackers*
- 3 Tbsp granulated sugar
- 5 Tbsp unsalted butter melted
- 1 1/2 tsp lime zest
- 1/2 tsp chili powder
mango mousse
- 3 cups 24 oz chopped mango (fresh or frozen and thawed)
- 1 tsp honey
- 1 cup chilled heavy whipping cream
- garnish: if desired small sprig mint and chopped fresh mango
instructions
- To make the crumble, preheat oven to 325˚F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with silicone mat or aluminum foil.
- Add graham crackers, sugar, melted butter, chili powder, and lime zest to a food processor. Pulse the mixture until it comes together to form coarse crumbs.
- Dump mixture onto the prepared sheet pan. Spread into an even layer and bake for 10 minutes, until golden brown. Set aside to cool completely.
- To make the mousse, clean out the food processor if you used it to make the crumble. Add mango and honey. Puree until smooth. Strain through a fine mesh sieve to make it really smooth.
- Beat heavy cream to stiff peaks in a stand mixer or using a bowl and a handheld electric mixer.
- Add 1 cup mango puree to the whipped cream. Fold the mixture together until just combined. Do not over mix! Use as few movements as possible to bring the mousse together.
- To assemble, divide the crumble between the cups evenly. Top with even amounts of the mango mousse. Top with remaining mango puree.
- Cover the jars with plastic wrap and chill for at least 2 hours before serving.
