• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 pack graham crackers (about 25–30 pieces)

Tips for Success

• Use Ripe Mangoes: The sweeter the mango, the better the flavor.
• Chill Well: The longer it chills, the softer and more cake-like the graham crackers become.
• Make It Lighter: Swap condensed milk with a drizzle of honey or reduced-sugar sweetener.
• Presentation Tip: Use clear glass dishes to show off the beautiful mango layers.
