Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups milk
- 3 tbsp custard powder (mango flavor)
- 1/4 cup sugar

- 1 to 1 1/2 cups whipped cream (sweetened)
- 1 1/2 cups diced ripe mangoes
- 1 cup sponge cake cubes or crushed vanilla cookies

Instructions
- Prepare the Mango Custard: In a small bowl, mix custard powder with a little milk to form a smooth paste. Heat the remaining milk and add sugar. When warm, stir in the custard mixture and cook until thickened. Remove from heat and stir in mango puree. Let it cool.
- Prepare the Whipped Cream: In a mixing bowl, beat cold heavy cream until thickened. Add powdered sugar and whip until stiff peaks form.

- Chill & Serve: Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to allow flavors to meld.
Notes
Use fresh mangoes for the best flavor and color. Make sure the custard is completely cooled before layering.
