PASSION FRUIT AND MANGO FRUIT TRIFLE

Steps:

• Put mangoes and 3 tablespoons sugar in a bowl. Put a strainer over the bowl. Cut the passion fruit in 1/2, scoop the seeds and juice of the passion fruit into the strainer. Allow all the juice to drain from the passion fruit. Put heavy cream, and sugar in a bowl, and whisk to soft peaks. Drizzle slices of shortcake with the Cointreau. In a wine or sundae glass layer the ingredients starting with sponge cake, then mangoes, then cream, and so on until you reach the top. Finish with a little cream at the top.

TROPICAL MANGO TRIFLE

Steps:

• Combine mango, 1/2 cup sugar, lemon juice, and salt in a food processor; puree until smooth. Add egg yolks; process for 15 seconds.
• Pour mango mixture through a sieve set over a large metal bowl, pressing on solids with the back of a spatula to release as much puree as possible. Discard solids in sieve.
• Fill a large saucepan with 2 inches of water; bring to a simmer. Set metal bowl on top; whisk puree until thickened and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers 170 degrees F (77 degrees C), about 10 minutes.
• Place metal bowl on a towel on a flat work surface. Whisk in butter 1 piece at a time until blended. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight.
• Combine milk and coconut pudding mix in a saucepan. Bring to boil, stirring constantly until thickened. Remove from heat; fold in grated coconut and vanilla extract. Refrigerate until set, about 1 hour.
• Beat heavy cream in a chilled glass or metal bowl with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Add 1/4 cup sugar gradually, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form.
• Place 1/2 of the pound cake cubes in the bottom of a large trifle bowl. Layer some of the bananas, pineapple, and strawberries on top. Spoon 1/2 of the mango puree and coconut pudding on top. Repeat layers with remaining pound cake, bananas, pineapple, strawberries, mango puree, and coconut pudding.
• Spoon whipped cream on top in big, fluffy swirls. Chill until serving.
