Why would you want to cook Mango? All you need to do is cut in half, scoop out and puree with the cream. If it isn't very sweet, then add a spoon of sugar (actually, honey will distort the wonderful taste)!

it's kinda hard to boil the mangoes enough for the skin to come off (ir maybe it just feels like that cuz i'm only 12...) but other than that the recipe was quite easy and very yummy!

I'm not sure what the point of boiling the mango is. I simply removed the pit and skin, diced it and whizzed it up with my hand blender. Meanwhile, I beat some whipped cream with honey (added in a little cinnamon and vanilla extract) and then folded in the pureed mango and chilled. The end result was light and tasty...but nothing exciting at all.

The recipe idea is a good combination - fruit with cream. But I used canned Mango puree (available in asian stores)to save myself the trouble plus you get consistent taste. I blended the pureed mangos with one cup almonds/ 2 sliced white bread/ half and half and added whipped cream. Freezed it overnight. Tropical treat heaven!!!

Honestly, I was not impressed. Perhaps I just didn't do it right, perhaps I was having a bad day . . . It tasted like semi-creamy mango mash, that's all, and unfortunately I was expecting a nice, fluffy, mango-flavored dessert. I even like mangos! The mangos were quite stringy, maybe I didn't blend them long enough? The cream never whipped properly either, I wondered later if I should've added the honey later, with the mangos, instead of whipping it with the cream, because that sure didn't work!! It has potential, but that's because it's such a nice basic recipe. I imagine it would be good with other fruits.

Mangos were easy enough to peel - about 5 minutes in boiling water and let cool - skin peeled right off. Nobody in my family liked it. I wont be making this again. Guess you really have to like Mangos. My son said it would be great with strawberries instead.

We didn't enjoy this at all. It was something of a pain to make, just because I had trouble getting the mango to really blend well, but the main problem is the taste. It tastes like a blob of honey with a little mango flavoring on the side. I'm a sugar addict, and this is way over-the-top too sweet even for me.

Delicious? Yes! Quick? No!! It took a lot of simmering in water before discovering that the skin would not start to remove. (I even slit the skin with a sharp knife - no luck!) Finally, I took the mangos out of the water, and after a cooling-off, peeled off the skin. Now came the really rude surprise: the fruit DOES NOT easily come away from the huge pit (nothing like a peach!). I squished, and squeezed, and scraped that pulp away. It took what seemed FORever! What did I do wrong? Are there different kinds of mangos? I served this to my ladies' Euchre group, and got rave reviews for the taste. I insisted that even the dieter's have some because of how much work went into it. LOL! One of the gals suggested that this would be great made with peaches - I'll sure try that next time!

This wasn't at all what I expected. I ended up with a mango puree. It tasted good (just like mangos), but I didn't care to eat it by itself. My family wasn't impressed by it either. Maybe it would be good as a filling in a cake?
