  Homemade Mango Ice Cream: A Taste of Tropical Paradise

Introduction: Transport yourself to a tropical paradise with homemade mango ice cream. Made with ripe, juicy mangoes and creamy goodness, this delightful dessert is sure to brighten your day with its refreshing flavor. Let's dive into the recipe and create a batch of sunshine in a scoop!

Ingredients:

• 2 cups ripe mango puree (from approximately 3-4 large ripe mangoes)
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 cup whole milk
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Pinch of salt
• Optional: diced mango pieces for garnish

Instructions:

1. Prepare the mango puree: Peel and pit the ripe mangoes, then chop them into chunks. Place the mango chunks in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth to make the mango puree. Set aside.
2. Prepare the ice cream base: In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, and granulated sugar over medium heat. Stirring occasionally, heat the mixture until it just starts to steam and the sugar is fully dissolved. Do not let it boil.
3. Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Let the mixture cool to room temperature.
4. Mix in the mango puree: Once the ice cream base has cooled, stir in the mango puree until well combined.
5. Chill the mixture: Cover the saucepan with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface of the mixture to prevent a skin from forming. Chill the mango mixture in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, until thoroughly chilled.
6. Churn the ice cream: Once chilled, pour the mango mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
7. Freeze the ice cream: Transfer the churned mango ice cream to a freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
8. Serve and enjoy: Before serving, let the mango ice cream sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly for easier scooping. Garnish with diced mango pieces if desired.
9. Scoop the refreshing mango ice cream into bowls or cones, and savor the taste of tropical paradise with every spoonful!
