From the Test Kitchen

Every week we're bringing you a selection of Add-ons—a mix of our favorite appetizers, sides, desserts, or breakfast options that you can add to your box and fill out your table. This rich custard gets sweet, nutty flavor from a duo of coconut milk and cream—slowly mixed with eggs (or tempered) to develop its deliciously light, pudding-like texture. We're layering it with lime-marinated mango and topping with toasted coconut chips for extra fruity, tropical flavor in each bite.

instructions
Prepare the ingredients & marinate the mango
1 Prepare the ingredients & marinate the mango

Small dice the mango. Wash and dry the lime. Using a zester or the small side of a box grater, finely grate the lime to get 2 teaspoons. Halve the lime crosswise. In a bowl, combine the diced mango, lime zest, the juice of both lime halves, and 1/4 cup of the powdered sugar. Set aside to marinate, stirring occasionally. In a separate, large bowl, combine the cornstarch, remaining powdered sugar, and a pinch of salt; whisk to combine. Add the eggs and whisk until smooth.

3 Finish the custard & serve your dish

Cook on medium, whisking constantly, 3 to 4 minutes, or until thickened to a pudding-like consistency. Immediately transfer to a clean bowl to prevent from scorching. Divide half the custard among 4 glasses or jars (or transfer to a large serving dish). Evenly top with the marinated mango (including any liquid). Top with the remaining custard, then cover with plastic wrap (making sure the plastic touches the custard to prevent a film from forming). Refrigerate about 2 hours, or until set and chilled. Serve the finished custard parfait garnished with the coconut chips. Enjoy!
