Berries with Ricotta Cream

This is similar to cannoli filling and makes a fast, easy dessert.


Serves 4-6

For the berries:
1 pint fresh strawberries, sliced or quartered
1 cup fresh blackberries
1 cup fresh raspberries
1 tablespoon sugar

Combine the fruit and sugar in a large bowl. Allow to sit for the berries to macerate while you make the ricotta cream.

For the ricotta cream:
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup ricotta cheese
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

In the bowl of a stand mixer with the whisk attachment, or with an electric mixer, combine the heavy cream and 1/2 of the sugar and whip until soft peaks form. Add the ricotta cheese, remaining sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla. Whip until the ingredients are well combined.

Serve the ricotta cream over the berries.

Enjoy!
