Tips

  • Use the best ricotta you can find or make your own. Here’s my Fresh Ricotta recipe.
  • You can whip this dessert with a hand-held mixer or in your food processor.
  • If you are serving this with cut fruit, such as strawberries, stir the fruit with a little honey or sugar and let it sit for a while to make a syrup.
  • You can substitute equal amounts of confectionary sugar for the honey.
