Cake de Mango

How to Make the Best Mango Cake

Glenn Lindgren: If you're in Miami from about late May through August you're going to see a lot of mangoes for sale!

Jorge Castillo: They are practically on every street corner.

Glenn Lindgren: Many locals have mango trees in their back yards.

Raúl Musibay: They are great picked ripe off the tree and eaten sliced.

Jorge Castillo: You can also make a great Mango Ice Cream.

Glenn Lindgren: Here is another delicious way to use up all those extra mangoes.

Spoon into a greased 9x13 baking pan. Bake in preheated 350 degrees oven for 40 minutes. Check cake for doneness (an inserted toothpick comes out clean) as oven temperatures and cooking times may vary. Cool.

Frosting:

Beat the cream cheese, butter and vanilla in a mixer bowl until light. Add the confectioners' sugar, beating until smooth. Spread over the cake.
