Time 5h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 17

For the Cake
1 (.25-ounce) package unflavored gelatin
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cardamom
1/2 cup water
3 medium-sized, ripe but firm mangos, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch dice
1 teaspoon lime juice
1 1/4 cups (about 8 3/4 ounces) granulated sugar
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
4 large egg whites, at room temperature
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 vanilla bean, seeds scraped out
1 1/2 cups (about 12 ounces) mascarpone cheese
1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
44 savoiardi Italian ladyfingers from 2 (7-ounce) packages (see note)
For the Topping
2 medium-sized, ripe but firm mangos
2 teaspoons lime juice

Steps:

  • For the Cake: Combine gelatin, cardamom, and 1/4 cup water in small bowl and allow to soften, about 5 minutes. Microwave 45 seconds and allow to cool to room temperature, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, pulse 1 cup diced mango, 1/4 cup sugar, and lime juice in food processor until completely puréed. Reserve.
  • Stir remaining 1 cup sugar, remaining 1/4 cup water, and corn syrup in heavy-bottomed medium saucepan over medium-low heat until sugar dissolves. Increase heat to medium-high and boil syrup until it registers 238°F on candy thermometer, about 5 minutes.
  • While syrup boils, with electric mixer fitted with whisk attachment, whip egg whites, vanilla bean seeds, and salt with whisk attachment on medium speed until soft peaks form, about 2 minutes.
  • When syrup reaches temperature, with mixer running on medium-high speed, slowly and carefully pour into egg whites. Beat until outside of bowl is cool to the touch and whites are thick and glossy, about 7 minutes. Add gelatin mixture and beat just to combine.
  • Whisk mascarpone, sweetened condensed milk, and pureed mango mixture together in large bowl. Mix in 1/3 of meringue. With rubber spatula, fold in remaining meringue. Fold in remaining 2 cups mango.
  • To Assemble: Line bottom of 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper round. Reserve 24 of the best looking ladyfingers and, with serrated knife, gently cut each into 3 1/4 inches long. Break remaining 20 cookies into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Top filling with remaining half of cookie pieces, pressing gently in with fingertips. Spread remaining half of mango mixture over cookies, smoothing top.
  • Peel mangos and discard skin. Peel mango flesh into thin strips and place in bowl. Toss with lime juice, then, wrap strips into flower-like rolls and arrange on top of cake.
  • Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate until set, at least 4 hours.
  • Release cake from springform mold and, leaving it on parchment round, gently slide onto a serving plate or cake stand. Slice and serve chilled.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe mangoes: The riper the mangoes, the sweeter and more flavorful your ice box cake will be.
  • Use a sharp knife to slice the mangoes: This will help prevent the mangoes from tearing.
  • Make sure the ladyfingers are completely covered in milk: This will help them to soften and become more flavorful.
  • Don't overbeat the whipped cream: Overbeaten whipped cream will become stiff and grainy.
  • Chill the cake for at least 4 hours before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld and the cake to set.

Mango ice box cake is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its creamy texture, sweet mango flavor, and crunchy ladyfingers, this cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
