Making mousse cake is actually very simple, none of them need oven, just more time-consuming!
Reference portion: one 6-inch round mold with a flat bottom
PS: In summer, add one (5g) or half (2.5g) more of the giardiniera in the recipe to ensure that the mousse paste will not be soft and couchy due to the high temperature. On the contrary, in winter, you can reduce one (5g) or half (2.5g). Girardin slices must be soaked in cold water (preferably ice water) to soften before use, as long as the melted girardin slices will play the role of coagulation. Normally, use about 7.5g for a 6-inch cake and 15g for an 8-inch cake.
If it is the imported Gilead powder, the solidifying power is much better than the Gilead flakes, the amount used can be appropriately reduced by about 1/3 than the flakes. Ghiridin powder should be properly added with water when using, this amount of water should not be too much, usually add about 2 times of the amount of Ghiridin powder, if the water is added too much, it will affect the coagulation power.

Mango Mousse Cake Directions ?

Make the cookie base:
Put the digestive cookies (or Oreo cookies with the sandwiches removed) into a plastic bag, roll them out with a rolling pin, and then pour them into a large bowl. Melt the butter into a liquid over water and then pour it into the crushed cookies and mix well. Mix the butter and crushed cookies well before pouring into the molds, gently and evenly distribute them in the molds, flatten them with a spatula and press them firmly to compact them, and then put them into the refrigerator to chill for at least 30 minutes or more. Be sure to press firmly, otherwise it will easily fall apart when you take off the mold and cut the pieces.
PS: The cookie crumbs must be finely crushed and the butter must be well mixed, otherwise the cookie base will fall apart when you cut it because the butter cannot solidify the cookie crumbs.

Pour 40g granulated sugar into 60g milk, heat it under water, add 3 softened and drained custard slices (the cold or iced water for soaking the custard slices is not needed), stir until the custard melts, pour it into the mango puree, and mix it together quickly with a spatula. If lumps appear during the period, you can heat the whole bowl of mango puree over water for a while, so that the solidified giardiniera melted again, giardiniera is not mixed with the mango puree will cause the mousse is not shaped, out of the water.

(The pulp can also not add), and then pour the remaining mousse paste (mousse paste must have the consistency, otherwise it will be particularly thin), gently use a spatula to smooth the surface, lift the mold a few shakes, so that the surface is more even, put back in the refrigerator to chill for 2 hours.
