Is the season getting you down? This recipe will brighten your day and have you longing for summer!

Mango Parfait

Ingredients

  • 2 cups of mango chunks
  • 1 1/2 cups of heavy coconut cream
  • 1/4 cup pistachios for garnish

Instructions

  1. Add mangos to a food processor and puree.
  2. Use a coffee grinder to grind the nuts.
  3. To make coconut cream filling use a hand mixer or an old fashioned fork to whip the coconut cream. Mix until whipped cream consistency. If you want it to be thicker, add a little powdered sugar (turbinado and corn starch blended together makes powdered sugar).
  4. Layer the parfait: cream, mango puree, cream, pistachios, mango chunks.
  5. Enjoy!

The Psalmist says, “How sweet are thy words unto my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth” (Psalm 119:103)!

Even though this is a sweet treat to remind us of the upcoming summer, God’s word is even sweeter.

All scripture taken from the King James Version.

Thanks for the simple yet creative piece. How can I make coconut cream from real coconut? I'm imagining that I can use that as an alternative the cream that you mention.

Hi Sharon. That’s awesome that you want to use a real coconut to make the cream. I can imagine that you would blend the chunks into a milk and add a thickener such as guar gum. Then you would take the thicker part and follow the recipe for whipping it, etc. I’m really not sure because I have never tried it, but it is worth a try.😁 -Selah
