You’ll want the ripest and juiciest mangoes to really do justice to this popular Filipino dessert. Made of layered whipped sweetened cream, graham cracker crumbs and fruit that’s chilled overnight (think icebox cake), it’s an easy no-bake dessert you can learn by heart.

Reviews
Was this supposed to be frozen? It said “chill” which I took as refrigerate. I used 35% whipping cream, and this was a so sloppy after being in the fridge overnight. Really wish it would’ve worked!
It’s delicious.
Can’t type fast enough!
This recipe tastes delicious! Everyone who tried it loved it. It has to be eaten right away the next day or the mango looses flavor.
Everyone wanted the recipe for this awesome not so heavy dessert! Definitely can substitute the mango with other preferred fruits if you want. The cream is what made it a hit!
Recipe was easy and delicious but really sweet. I would next time use half the can of condensed milk for this recipe.
I have made this with apples, peaches, cherry pie filling and even home made Meyer lemon curd. The recipe I have calls for stabilizing the whipped cream/condensed milk with unflavored gelatin and making just 3 layers. It has to be one of my family’s favorite decadent fruit desserts.
I have used this with all types of fruit and each one was delicious !
