Mango Delight

Try this tropical twist on a traditional gelatin mold.

1 C. orange juice
3 packets unflavored gelatin
5 medium, very ripe mangoes
1 C. sugar
1 C. evaporated skim milk
2 C. light whipped topping

  1. Put orange juice into small, heat-proof bowl and sprinkle the gelatin over it. Set aside for 5 minutes.
  2. Peel mangoes, cut fruit from pits and puree in blender or food processor. You should have 4 cups of puree.
  3. Transfer puree to large bowl and stir in sugar and evaporated milk.
  4. Warm juice and gelatin over a bowl of hot water until liquid and smooth. Whisk gelatin into mango mixture.
  5. Stir in whipped topping.
  6. Fill a 10-cup mold with cold water and pour all water out. Fill mold with mango mixture, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until set, at least 2 to 3 hours.
  7. To serve, wrap a warm, damp towel around mold. Invert a serving plate over mold and, holding plate and mold together, turn plate upright. Lift mold away carefully.
  8. Garnish with fresh fruit if desired. Serve cold.
