ingredients

4 tablespoons salted butter
2 cups whole milk
¹⁄₂ cup heavy cream
¹⁄₃ cup sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 teaspoons ground cardamom
1 teaspoon ground ginger
3 large eggs
2 large mangoes, pitted, peeled, and cut into 1/2-inch cubes or 2 large two 10-ounce bags frozen mangoes, thawed
6 slices country bread, cut into 1/2-inch cubes (about 6 cups)
whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, for serving

directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-by-11-inch ceramic baking dish.
2. In a medium saucepan combine the butter, milk, cream, sugar, vanilla, cardamom, and ginger and simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the butter melts and the milk is hot. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool slightly for about 4 to 5 minutes.
3. In a small bowl, whisk the eggs and then whisk them steadily into the milk mixture. Continue whisking until blended.
4. Combine the mangoes and bread in a large bowl and mix well. Transfer to the baking dish and pour the milk mixture evenly over the top. Make sure all of the bread pieces are soaked with the mixture, and let sit for 5 minutes.
5. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, until bubbly and brown. Serve warm but not hot, with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

Even though I am still young (25) Life experince has aged me alot. I learned to cook at both of my grandmother's knees (One southern American, one southern Irish) when I was about five. By ten I started collecting cookbooks and experinmenting on my own. As a latch key kid I cooked for my four younger brothers and sisters. My mom ran a small deli before she died when I was 17 so alot of my recies debuted there. Now I run my own catering Buisness. I am married to a wnderful man for five years now. I am a six year old daughter, sons who are four and three. We are also raising my 14 year old sister and nine Year old stepsister and have a 16 year old foster daughter, all of which love cooking with me. I am writing a cookbook with the hopes that when I pass I can leave my recipes for them My cookbook collection has now reached over 1200. Thank you for trying and reviewing my recipes.. <img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg">
