Discard the seeds and place the durian pulp in a bowl.

Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Continue whipping until the mixture is well combined and forms stiff peaks.<br />Combine Durian Pulp and Cream:<br /><br />Gently fold the fresh durian pulp into the whipped cream mixture using a spatula. Be careful not to overmix to retain the creamy texture.<br />Add Lemon Juice:<br /><br />Squeeze the lemon juice over the mixture and gently fold it in. Lemon juice helps to balance the sweetness and enhances the durian flavor.<br />Chill the Dessert:<br /><br />Transfer the durian dessert mixture into a serving dish or individual dessert cups. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set.<br />Garnish and Serve:<br /><br />Before serving, sprinkle some crushed cookies or graham crackers over the chilled durian dessert. Optionally, you can add a few fresh mint leaves for an extra touch of freshness.<br />Enjoy your homemade Durian Delight Dessert!
