Ingredients

  • 250 grams ricotta, drained
  • 1/4 cup cream
  • 1 1/2 to 2 tbsp ground coffee
  • 4 tbsp sugar (divided into 2 & and 2 tbsp)
  • 1 tbsp amaretto
  • 2 1/2 cups mixed berries
  • 1/2 lemon, juiced

Instructions

  • Combine ricotta and cream in a bowl. Mix thoroughly until smooth.
  • Add ground coffee, 2 tbsp sugar and amaretto. Mix to combine. Cover with a plastic wrap and refrigerate to chill.
  • To make the compote: In a small saucepan, combine mixed berries, lemon juice and 2 tbsp of sugar. Bring to a boil, mix and simmer until the sugar has dissolved and the sauce has slightly thickened. Stir the sauce often during this time to make sure that nothing sticks. I normally just leave mine to simmer for 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Set compote aside to cool.
  • To serve: Take the coffee ricotta from the refrigerator and spoon some in a dessert glass. Top with berry compote and a piece of fresh berry (if desired). Enjoy!
