Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
2
In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
3
In another bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
4
Gradually add the milk and mango puree, alternating with the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
5
Gently fold in the diced mango.
6
Fill the cupcake liners about ¾ full.
7
Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
8
While the cupcakes are baking, prepare the frosting: beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Add the heavy cream and mango puree and mix until well combined and creamy.
9
Let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting. Garnish with a dollop of mango frosting and a slice of fresh mango on top.
