1 cup whole milk
1 cup simple syrup, recipe follows

CHOCOLATE RICOTTA CREAM

This is a low fat easy to do dessert. I suppose cottage cheese could be substituted for the ricotta but I have not tried it this way. Looks and tastes good.

Time 8m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

15 ounces part-skim ricotta cheese
5 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons cocoa
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
2 tablespoons sliced almonds, preferably toasted

Steps:

  • Process cheese in food processor for 1 minute.
  • Add honey, cocoa, vanilla and cinnamon.
  • Process until smooth and creamy.
  • Spoon into 6 wine glasses and garnish with almonds.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A semisweet or bittersweet chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 60% is ideal.
  • Make sure the ricotta cheese is well-drained before using it. This will help prevent the cream from being too runny.
  • If you don't have a pastry bag, you can use a zip-top bag with the corner snipped off to pipe the cream.
  • The cream can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When you're ready to serve, let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes.
  • Serve the cream with fresh berries, fruit, or cookies for a delicious dessert.

Conclusion:

Chocolate ricotta cream is a rich and creamy dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious treat that will impress your friends and family.
