Mango and Mascarpone Brulee is a tropical twist on a classic French dessert. The sweet, juicy chunks of mango pair perfectly with rich, creamy mascarpone and the crunchy caramelized sugar topping. This recipe is great for entertaining, as it can be made ahead of time and then caramelized just before serving.

Instructions

1.Preheat the oven to 350°F.
2.Cut the mangoes into cubes and divide them evenly amongst six ramekins.
3.In a mixing bowl, whisk together the mascarpone cheese, yogurt, ginger, lemon juice and rind, and rum (if using).
4.Spoon the mixture over the mangoes in each ramekin, smoothing the top.
5.Scatter the brown sugar over the surface of each ramekin, and dot with butter in small pieces.
6.Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the brulees are golden and bubbly.
7.Let them cool slightly, then chill them in the refrigerator for at least an hour. Before serving, sprinkle some additional brown sugar on top of each ramekin and use a blowtorch to caramelize the sugar until golden brown.
8.Garnish each brulee with a sprig of fresh mint leaves, if desired.
