Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 6-cup muffin tin or line it with paper liners.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time to the butter mixture, beating well after each addition. Then mix in the vanilla extract.
Reduce the mixer speed to low and slowly add the mango puree, mixing until just combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture in three additions, alternating with the milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
Gently fold in the diced fresh mango pieces using a spatula.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 16-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cake comes out clean.
Allow the mini mango cakes to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Optional: Dust the tops of the cooled cakes with powdered sugar before serving for an extra touch of sweetness.
