Ingredients

15 graham crackers (3 crushed for topping)

2 cups heavy whipping cream

1/2 cup condensed milk

4 ripe mangoes (3 sliced, 1 diced)

1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang.
  2. Chill condensed milk overnight in the fridge or 30 minutes in the freezer.
  3. Peel and slice 3 mangoes thinly; dice 1 mango into cubes. Set aside.
  4. Whip heavy cream on medium-high until soft peaks form. Add condensed milk and vanilla; beat until stiff peaks form. Divide cream into 3 portions.
  5. Place a layer of graham crackers in the dish. Spread one part of cream, then top with mango slices. Repeat to form 3 layers, finishing with cream on top.
  6. Sprinkle with crushed graham crackers and scatter cubed mango over the top.
  7. Cover and refrigerate at least 8 hours or overnight until firm.
  8. Lift cake out with parchment paper, slice, and serve chilled.

Notes

Add crushed graham cracker layers between cream and mango for more texture.

Mix cream cheese into whipped cream for tanginess.

Swap mangoes with peaches or strawberries for variation.

Drizzle caramel or chocolate syrup on top before chilling for decadence.

Store chilled up to 3 days or freeze up to 2 weeks (thaw in fridge overnight).
