Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F/177°C.
- To make the crust (if using prepared crust, skip this step):
- Add the crackers or biscuits and sugar to a food processor. Pulse until they are finely crumbled. With the processor running, drizzle in the melted butter until evenly coated with butter. If you don't have a food processor, add the crackers and sugar to a large ziptop bag and crush them with a pan or rolling pin. Transfer to a mixing bowl and add the melted butter. Mix well.
- Place a 9-inch (23 cm) removable bottomed, fluted tart pan on a baking sheet (this will help easily clean up any stray crumbs and make the tart easy to move in and out of the oven). Spread the crumbs evenly in the pan, then use a small flat bottomed cup or bowl to press the crust as firmly as you can into an even layer on the bottom and up the sides. Bake for 10 minutes, remove and allow to cool. Keep the oven on.
- To make the filling:Add the mango to a blender (or Nutribullet) and blend until you get a smooth puree. A food processor will not make the puree smooth. To a mixing bowl add the purred mango, sweetened condensed milk, egg yolks and orange zest, whisk well to combine. Pour over the cooled crust and spread into an even layer.
- Bake for 18-22 minutes, until the top is set. If you shake the pan slightly, it will jiggle a little in the center, that is fine. Remove from the oven and place on a cooling rack for 2 hours. Once cooled, refrigerate for 3-4 hours.

MANGO FLOAT
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.

Steps:
- Combine the cream, sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract in a large bowl. Beat with a hand mixer until double in volume, about 4 minutes.
- Spread a scant 2 cups of cream in an 8-inch square baking dish, followed by 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs and a third of the mangoes. Continue alternating layers for a total of 9 layers, ending with mango. Chill at least 8 hours and up to overnight.
MANGO PIE
When Hrishikesh Hirway was a kid, his parents, who immigrated to the United States from Maharashtra, in western India, began hosting Thanksgiving. The meal soon evolved into a hybrid of a traditional Thanksgiving and an Indian potluck. "Out of that cultural mash-up, my mom started making this mango pie," he said. She'd gotten the idea from other Indian aunties in the States, but their versions weren't as good. "They weren't making it with the best kind of mango," Hirway explained. "The Alphonsos have a stronger, more intense flavor." That Alphonso flavor shines as brilliantly as the pie's bright filling, made tangy and rich with the addition of cream cheese and whipped cream. And the salty, crumbly graham cracker crust is the perfect foundation for the golden cloud of custard that sits atop it. It's so satisfying that you'll catch yourself cutting sliver after mouthwatering sliver of pie.

Steps:
- Stir crumbs, sugar, cardamom and salt together in a medium bowl. Add butter, and stir with a fork until evenly combined.
- Pour half the crumb mixture into a 9-inch round metal pie pan, and spread evenly. Press down with fingers, a metal measuring cup or a second pie pan to compact the crumbs as much as possible across the bottom and up the sides of the pan into an even crust. (The more compressed the crust, the less it will crumble.) Repeat to form the remaining crumb mixture into a crust in a second pan.
- Heat oven to 325. Transfer both crusts to freezer, and chill for 15 minutes. Bake until golden brown, about 12 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Place 3/4 cup cold water in a large bowl. In a small bowl, stir together 1/4 cup sugar with the gelatin; sprinkle mixture evenly over the surface of the cold water. Let sit a few minutes to bloom.
- In the meantime, whip the cream and remaining 1/4 cup sugar together until medium-stiff peaks form. Set aside.
- In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, warm 1 cup of the mango purée to body temperature (stir to make sure you are just warming it and not bringing it to a boil). Pour warmed mango purée over gelatin mixture, and whisk until well combined. Gelatin should dissolve into mango completely. Gradually whisk in remaining mango purée.
- Use a rubber spatula to beat the cream cheese in a medium bowl until it is soft and smooth, then add to mango mixture along with a large pinch of sea salt. Use an immersion blender to blend until completely smooth, tipping the bowl to make sure you've incorporated everything well. Gently tap the bowl on the counter once or twice to pop any air bubbles. Use the spatula to gently fold about 1/4 of the mango mixture into the whipped cream, then fold cream into the larger amount of mixture until no streaks remain.
- Divide custard between cooled crusts. Use a rubber spatula to smooth out the filling. Refrigerate 5 hours or overnight until firm and chilled. Serve chilled.

MANGO GRAHAM CRACKER CRUST
The crust comes from an Emeril recipe for a mango cream pie, but I wanted to keep this separate so I don't forget about the crust alone. I like it in the mango cream pie, but think it would also be awesome for making a coconut cream pie.

Steps:
- Combine ingredients.
- Pat into 9 inch pie plate.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes until firm.
- Cool on wire rack before filling.
Tips:
- Use ripe mangoes: The riper the mangoes, the sweeter and more flavorful your pie will be.
- Don't overcook the mangoes: Overcooked mangoes will become mushy and lose their flavor. Cook them just until they are softened and starting to release their juices.
- Use a good quality graham cracker crust: A homemade graham cracker crust is always best, but you can also use a store-bought crust if you're short on time.
- Chill the pie before serving: This will help the pie to set and make it easier to slice.
Conclusion:
Mango graham cracker pie is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its sweet and tangy filling and its crunchy graham cracker crust, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give mango graham cracker pie a try.
