Mango kulfi cake
Cakes
Mango kulfi was one of my favorite treats when I was a little kid. My brother and parents and I often went shopping in Jackson Heights, Queens, on the weekends, and, as a reward for enduring the throngs of people, we would get a mango kulfi pop. Neither my brother nor I were big ice cream eaters (and we still aren't), but we loved this stuff - cool yogurt, tart mango, mellow cardamom, earthy saffron, and crunchy pistachios - a sophisticated dessert for a kid, but delicious nonetheless. This cake - which I've made a few times for my mom's birthday - is based on my mango kulfi cupcakes, but has been spruced up with the addition of saffron to the cake batter and pistachios between the layers and on top of the cake to make it taste even more like real mango kulfi.
