How to Make Mango Custard Tart

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a small saucepan, combine ½ cup granulated sugar, 1 cup whole milk, and ½ cup heavy whipping cream. Bring to a slow simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly until sugar dissolves.
  3. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup mango puree, 2 large eggs, 2 large egg yolks, and 1 tablespoon brandy. Gently whisk this mixture into the cooled milk mixture until fully combined.
  5. Strain the custard mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a prepared 9-inch pie crust.
  6. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the custard is set and no longer jiggles in the center. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
  7. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
  8. To serve: In a chilled bowl, beat 1 cup heavy whipping cream with 2 tablespoons powdered sugar until stiff peaks form.
  9. Cut the tart into 8 slices and place on serving plates.
  10. Pipe or spoon whipped cream onto each slice and serve immediately.
