Ingredients
- 2 cups ricotta cheese
- 2 cups mixed berries (fresh or frozen)
- 3 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- 1
In a small bowl, stir together the 2 cups ricotta, 1 tbsp honey, and 1 tsp vanilla extract until smooth. Set aside.
- 2
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the 2 cups berries, remaining 2 tbsp honey, and 1 tbsp lemon juice. Cook, stirring occasionally, until berries release their juices and the sauce thickens slightly, about 8-10 minutes.
- 3
Remove the berry sauce from heat and let it cool for 5 minutes; it will continue to thicken as it cools.
- 4
Divide the ricotta mixture among 4 serving bowls or glasses.
- 5
Spoon the warm berry sauce over the ricotta, dividing evenly. Serve immediately, or chill for 30 minutes for a colder dessert.
