How to Make Double Ginger Mango Shortbread

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. In a small bowl, combine 1 cup of pureed mango and 2 tablespoons of freshly grated ginger root.
  3. Stir in 1 tablespoon of hot water and set aside to let the flavors meld.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, 2 tablespoons ground ginger, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  5. Cut in 1 cup (2 sticks) of cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  6. In a separate bowl, lightly beat 1 large egg. Add the mango mixture from step 3 to the beaten egg and stir to combine. Then, gently stir this mixture into the flour/butter mixture until just combined.
  7. Press the dough evenly into a 10-inch by 15-inch rimmed baking pan.
  8. Sprinkle evenly with 1/2 cup sliced almonds.
  9. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown and the center is set.
  10. Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into 1 1/2-inch pieces.
