  • 1 cup mango puree
  • 3/4 cup sugar

  • 1/2 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, powdered sugar, and salt.
  2. Cut in the Butter: Add the softened butter and work it into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Add Egg Yolk: Mix in the egg yolk until combined.
  4. Incorporate Cold Water: Gradually add the cold water one tablespoon at a time, mixing gently until the dough comes together.
