  • Hey Mauvais, what's the lf ricotta cream dessert?- sounds delish!
    Is it bought, or do you have a recipe?

    All it is some riccota cheese blended with some sweetener and some vanilla extract. Beat with an electric mixer until it is smooth and voila!

    I don't have the recipe on me right now but you can probably get it from the SBD forum or from the actual SBD web site
