Girl, let me tell you about this absolutely divine midnight snack that’ll make your taste buds dance! Being a Florida native, I’ve perfected this little piece of heaven I call the “Tropical Midnight Crunch Toast” – and trust me, it’s worth staying up for! 🌴
Y’all, this isn’t your basic avocado toast (though we love that too!). This is what happens when the Florida vibes hit you at midnight and you need something sweet, salty, and totally Instagram-worthy.
Here’s what you’ll need, bestie:
– Thick-cut brioche bread (because we’re fancy like that!)
– Cream cheese
– Fresh Florida mangoes (store-bought is fine, honey)
– Crushed macadamia nuts
– Local honey
– A pinch of sea salt
– Optional: coconut flakes (because why not?)
Now, let me walk you through this magic:
1. First, toast that brioche until it’s golden brown. We want it crispy on the outside but still soft enough to bite into – you know what I’m talking about! 😉
1. While it’s still warm, spread a generous layer of cream cheese. Don’t be shy – calories don’t count after midnight, right?
1. Layer those juicy mango slices on top. If you’re feeling extra, do it in a pretty pattern (trust me, your midnight Instagram story will thank you).
1. Sprinkle those crushed macadamia nuts like you’re spreading fairy dust, honey!

1. Drizzle that honey in a zigzag pattern (make it rain, sugar!)
1. Finish with a tiny pinch of sea salt and coconut flakes if you’re using them.
The combination of sweet mangoes, creamy cheese, crunchy nuts, and that hint of salt is _chef’s kiss_ perfection! It’s fancy enough to feel like you’re treating yourself but easy enough to make when you’re half-asleep scrolling through TikTok at 2 AM.
Pro tip: If mangoes aren’t in season, you can use peaches or even strawberries. Just keep that Florida energy, you feel me?
This snack is perfect for those nights when you’re binge-watching your favorite show or just can’t sleep because you had that late afternoon coffee (we’ve all been there, hun!).
