This Mango Posset Brûlée is a luxurious tropical dessert with a silky, citrus-infused cream base served inside mango halves and topped with a caramelized sugar crust—combining elegance and flavor in every creamy, crackly bite.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 ripe mangoes, halved and pitted (use as serving vessels)
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
  • 1/3 cup white sugar (plus extra for brûlée topping)
  • 1/3 cup fresh mango puree (from scooped mango)
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. In a small saucepan, combine heavy cream and sugar. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Let simmer for 3 minutes.
  2. Remove from heat and stir in mango puree, lemon juice, and vanilla.
  3. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve for extra smoothness.
  4. Carefully pour the mixture into the hollowed mango halves and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set.
  5. Once chilled and firm, sprinkle a thin layer of sugar over the surface of each posset and torch until caramelized and golden.
  6. Let the sugar crust cool and harden for a few minutes, then serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use a culinary torch for best brûlée results.
  • Chill mango halves in advance to help the posset set evenly.
  • Substitute lemon juice with lime for a zestier variation.
