1. Bring 600 ml fresh milk to a scalding point, set aside to cool off for 5 minutes.
2. Whisk together 175 g all purpose flour, 50 g white sugar and 1 tsp. salt.
3. In a separate mixing bowl, beat 6 eggs .
4. With a whisk, carefully incorporate beaten eggs into the flour-sugar/salt mixture.
5. Add warm milk, one cupful after the other while whisking. Do not add milk all at
once to avoid eggs from curdling.
6. Melt 60 g of butter until it turns amber, then whisk into the batter. Leave batter
to cool at room temperature, cover with cling foil and refrigerate for about 6
hours or longer. You could do this the night before.
With a food processor or hand held blender,pure 2 ripe mangoes and 50 g of caster
sugar together. You could use more mangoes if you want .A good quality mango pulp
would also be a nice alternative.
In a separate bowl, beat 500 ml whip cream, 2 tbsp. of whip cream stiffener, 100 g of
caster sugar and 1 tbs. of vanilla sugar until soft peaks form. Then whisk in beaten cream
cheese until stiff peaks form.
Heat a non stick pan over medium low heat and brush with oil and a tad of butter. If you
are own a crepe pan or crepe maker, the better. It will certainly make your life easier.
Dealing with a paper thin and delicate crpes without tearing in to pieces was not as
easy as it looked...so I've realized.Read:Temper tantrum filled Saturday afternoon.
Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter into the pan ( Depending of the sized of your pan, mine
was 12 in'' in diameter so I used about 1/3 cup for each crpe ). Tilt the pan in a circular
motion so that the batter coats the surface evenly. A ribbon goes to you if you could
produce paper thin crpes.
Cook Crpe for about 2 minutes on the first side then a minute or less on the other side.
Stack crpes carefully and set aside. Cover with parchment paper and let it cool off. I
was able to make a dozen 12'' crpes with my batter.
Probably the most fun part of the entire repertoire. Lay a crpe on big plate or on a
serving platter. Spread the mango mousse over it. Sprinkle with chopped mangoes,
repeat until all the crpes are used up. Use the remaining mango mousse to frost the
entire cake and decorate your cake to your heart's content. Who says you can't play with
your food? Refrigerate overnight and enjoy it on the next day...and the on next day
...and on the next day as we did.

Ingredients

1/2 cup cream cheese, cold
1/2 stick cup unsalted butter, cold
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
optional: 2 tablespoons sugar, 1/4 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
optional: milk, for brushing
Directions
CREAM CHEESE PIE CRUST: Cut cream cheese and butter into pieces. Add flour and combine. Add salt,
sugar, baking powder, and lemon juice. Your dough should form coarse crumbs. Wrap into a ball and cover
with plastic wrap; chill for at least an hour in the refrigerator.
PEACH MANGO PIE: Preheat oven to 375F. Line tray with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl combine fruit, sugar, cinnamon, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Let fruit sit over a strainer to
drain excess liquid. Microwave your fruit for about 1-2 minutes and then restrain liquids again, to thicken.
To assemble, roll out your crust thinly into a sheet and cut into rectangles with a knife. Spoon fruit filling on
one rectangle, then cover with another rectangle of crust to make your hand pie. Press down the edges with a
fork to seal. Poke vent holes on top to let steam out. Brush top with milk if desired for golden color when
baking.
* if making an open face normal sized pie instead of hand pies, increase the fruit to 2 cups each and you may
need to extend the baking time.
