A light, tropical flavored, diabetic-friendly dessert.

Ingredients

1 env unflavored gelatin;
2 cups mango puree (2-3 mangos)
1/3 cup Splenda
1/2 teaspoon Vanilla
1 cup Plain yogurt
1 cup heavy cream - Well-chilled


 

Instructions
In a small saucepan sprinkle the gelatin over 1/4 cup cold water, let it soften for 1 minute, and heat the mixture over low heat, stirring, until the gelatin is dissolved.

In a blender blend together the mango puree, the sugar, and the vanilla, add the gelatin mixture, and blend the mixture well. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and stir in the yogurt.

In a chilled bowl beat the cream until it holds stiff peaks, fold it into the mango mixture gently but thoroughly, and divide the mousse among 4 dessert glasses or molds. Chill the mousse for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Garnish the mousses with mango slices, mint leaves, or a small chocolate wafer.

notes:  For a fully vegetarian version use non-animal based "thickener" such as Agar-Agar. I topped my version with a bit of mango coulis and a bit of "drizzled shocolate".
