Mango Passion Fruit Slice with Physalis
4.5(924 ratings)Mango brings body and sweetness, passion fruit brings sharpness and those crunchy dark seeds. Together they make a slice that tastes like a holiday. A coconut-macadamia base keeps things tropical from bottom to top. Peel the husks of the physalis back like petals and set one on each square for a playful, golden finish.
