Mangoes are in season right now, i am keeping on looking for new recipes using that precious fruits. This is one recipe which i came across and immediately i gave it a try and it was phenomenal. The muffins had a lovely juicy taste from mangoes and it turned out very delicious.
The muffins are not too sweet, it was moderately sweet and taste so fresh. You can increase the sugar level if you need muffins on the sweeter side..But i liked it this way, because i served it with tea..So try this out and let me know if you liked it..

Hw 2make icing sugar
Aarthi
@Shafee Nazrinu cannot make, because they are super fine a normal blender cannot make things that fine. But if you want to try, powder 1 cup sugar with 1 tblspn cornflour. Then sieve that. it is icing sugar
