Mango Custard

I just love Egyptian grown mangoes. They are so brightly colored and taste very delicious. I had some that were really ripened and were perfect for a custard. I also had some eggs that needed to be used up. Don't worry if you are out of eggs or unable to eat them. I also have an egg free mango custard recipe that is also very tasty.
