Ingredients
Chocolate Base
- 8-10 Bourbon Biscuits
- 1 Tbsp Sugar
- 2 Tbsp Milk condensed
- 2 Tbsp Milk add more if needed for desired consistency
- 1/2 cup Chocolate bar or compound
Mango Mousse
- 1/2 cup Mango Pulp from about 1 mango
- 2 Tbsp Caster Sugar
- 1 cup Heavy Cream 100ml for mango mousse), divided (100ml for chocolate base
Instructions
- Crush the bourbon biscuits into fine crumbs. A food processor works best for a uniform texture.
- In a bowl, combine the crushed biscuits, sugar, condensed milk, and milk. Mix well until a dough-like consistency forms.
- In a saucepan, gently heat 100ml of the heavy cream. Do not boil. This gentle heating helps the chocolate melt smoothly.
- Add the chocolate to the warm cream and stir until completely melted and smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
- Combine the cooled chocolate mixture with the biscuit mixture. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
- Divide the chocolate mixture into individual serving dishes or molds. Refrigerate for 30-45 minutes to allow the base to set.
- While the chocolate base chills, prepare the mango mousse. In a bowl, combine the mango pulp, caster sugar, and the remaining 100ml of heavy cream.
- Whisk the mango mixture until light and airy. The mousse should hold its shape. Refrigerate for 10 minutes to allow it to thicken slightly.
- Remove the chilled chocolate base from the refrigerator. Top each serving with the prepared mango mousse. Return to the refrigerator for another 10-20 minutes to chill thoroughly before serving.
Recipe Notes
Good To Know
- For added texture and flavor contrast, sprinkle a layer of crushed roasted nuts (like pistachios or almonds) between the biscuit and mango-chocolate layers before chilling the dessert.
- If fresh mangoes are in season, dice some and fold them into the mango pulp layer for juicy bursts of fruit in each bite.
- To create a visually striking presentation, layer the chocolate and mango mixtures in clear glasses or jars, then gently swirl with a skewer or spoon for a marbled effect before chilling.
Expert Tips
- For a richer chocolate flavor, use high-quality dark chocolate with a cocoa content of 70% or higher.
- If you don't have mango pulp, you can substitute with other fruit purees like peach or apricot, adjusting the sweetness accordingly.
- Balance the sweetness of the mango with a pinch of salt in both the mango and chocolate layers.
Storage Instructions
- This dessert can be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Cover tightly with plastic wrap to prevent the biscuits from becoming overly soggy.
