Using a food processor, purée mangoes until smooth.
Mix mango purée and sugar in a small saucepan.
Allow to simmer, srirring frequently, for about 10 minutes or until consistency becomes thick like jam.
While the mango purée is thickening, whip cream until stiff peaks form (about 4–5 minutes on high speed).
Allow the thickened mango purée to cool slightly.
Whisk ¾ cup of the purée with sweetened condensed milk until thoroughly combined.
Add whipped cream to the mango mixture.
Fold in whipped cream gently until the mixture reaches uniform consistency.
Transfer mixture into a freezer-safe container and cover. Allow ice cream to freeze for at least 4 hours before serving.
Serve ice cream with extra mango purée and chopped mango if desired.
Notes
The mango purée should be simmering on a pretty low heat to avoid burning.
The total yield of thickened mango purée should be just over 1 cup, so there will be plenty leftover for topping the ice cream.
Allow the container to sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes before trying to scoop so ice cream can soften slightly.
You could also swirl the extra puree and/or mango chunks into the ice cream just before freezing, but I much preferred having the purée as sauce and not frozen.
You could also use a small blender instead of a food processor to purée the mangoes, but you might have to add water to get it smooth. If this is the case, you will need to simmer your purée for a little longer to evaporate the extra water.
The sugar in this recipe is optional. The sweetened condensed milk is quite sweet, and, along with the natural sugars in the mango, the ice cream is already quite sweet without the added sugar.
