Ricotta mousse dessert might sound intimidating, but it is an absolutely easy recipe to make. The crunchy base can be made way beforehand, and the mousse can be prepared in just fifteen minutes. The perfect dessert to impress your guests or to treat yourself to a little indulgence.
Crunchy Base:
The crunchy base is a mix of almond, chocolate, and hazelnut. To make the crunchy base, first, preheat your oven to 160C, and in a bowl, mix 100g of roasted almonds, 50g of roasted hazelnut, and 50g of roasted chocolate. Grind them to form a coarse mixture. Then melt 70g of butter and 50g of sugar in a pan and add the coarse mixture into the pan. Combine all the ingredients and pour them into a cake mold. Flatten it with a spoon or hands and place it in the preheated oven. Bake for around 20 minutes or until the mixture gets a light brown colour.
Ricotta Mousse:
The mousse is the star of this dessert. The creamy and smooth texture makes it irresistible. To make the ricotta mousse, we will need whipping cream, ricotta cheese, sugar, vanilla extract, and gelatine leaves. Soak three gelatine leaves in cold water until it becomes soft. Add 200g of ricotta cheese, 80g of sugar, and one teaspoon of vanilla extract in a bowl and mix it well. In a separate bowl, add 200ml of whipping cream and whisk it until you get soft peaks. Gently fold the whipped cream into the ricotta mixture until it is well combined.
In a separate bowl, take 30ml of water and add the soaked gelatine leaves. Gently heat it until the gelatine dissolves. Add the dissolved gelatine to the ricotta mixture and mix it well. Pour the ricotta mixture over the cooled down crunchy base and refrigerate it for at least 2 hours.
Serving:
Once it is set, take it out from the refrigerator and decorate it with berries, nuts, or grated chocolate. Cut it into slices and serve it chilled.
Conclusion:
The crunchy base mixed with the smooth ricotta mousse is a luscious combination that is perfect for all lovers. It is a and easy-to-make dessert that requires minimal ingredients. The recipe is versatile, and you can add your twist to it by adding different flavours such as chocolate, fruit, or nutty flavours. It is great for dinner parties, special occasions, or just a delightful treat for yourself. Give it a try and relish the creamy and crunchy flavour exploding in your mouth!
