- 1/2 cup yogurt
- 1 tbsp gelatin (optional)

- Combine the mixtures: Take the mango puree and fold it into the yogurt mixture, stirring gently.
- Incorporate the whipped cream: Carefully fold the whipped cream into the mango-yogurt mixture.
- Add the gelatin (if using): Gently fold it in so that it is evenly distributed throughout the mousse.
- Chill the mousse: Spoon the mousse into serving cups or bowls, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.
- Serve the mousse: Garnish with extra mango slices or mint leaves before serving.
