Best 8 Raspberry Ricotta Ice Cream Recipes

FRESH BERRIES & SWEET RICOTTA

Steps:

• Place the Homemade Ricotta in a medium bowl and stir in the sugar, honey, and vanilla. Set aside at room temperature for up to 2 hours. In another bowl, combine the strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries.
• When ready to serve, divide the berries among 6 bowls. With an ice cream scoop, place a large dollop of the ricotta in each bowl and drizzle with lots of the Fresh Raspberry Sauce. Sprinkle with the lemon zest and serve.
• Set a fine-mesh sieve over a deep bowl. Dampen 2 pieces of cheesecloth with water and line the sieve with a double layer of the cheesecloth.
• Pour the milk and cream into a medium stainless-steel or enameled pot, such as Le Creuset, and stir in the salt. Bring to a full rolling boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Turn off the heat and pour in the vinegar. Allow the mixture to stand for one minute, until it curdles. It will separate into thick parts (the curds) and milky parts (the whey).
• Pour the mixture into the cheesecloth-lined sieve and allow it to drain into the bowl at room temperature for 20 minutes (for soft ricotta) to 25 minutes (for firmer ricotta), occasionally discarding the liquid that collects in the bowl. Transfer the ricotta to a bowl, discarding the cheesecloth and any remaining liquid. Use immediately or cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate.
• The ricotta will keep, refrigerated, for 4 to 5 days.
• Place the raspberries, sugar, and 1/4 cup water in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer for 4 minutes. Pour the cooked raspberries, the jam, and the framboise into the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade and process until smooth. Pour into a container and chill. The sauce can be refrigerated for up to one week.

RICOTTA ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Add the heavy whipping cream to the bowl of a food processor. Process until stiff peaks form, for about a minute and a half, making sure to not overwhip, as it will be harder to mix later. Transfer the whipped cream to a bowl.
• Return the food processor bowl to the base (no need to clean). Add the ricotta, sweetened condensed milk, orange zest, vanilla caviar and salt, if using. Process until smooth, about 2 minutes.
• Using a rubber spatula, add the ricotta mixture to the bowl of whipped cream and fold in gently. Transfer to a freezeproof container with a lid and freeze until firm, at least 6 hours.
• Serve topped with a few raspberries and the chopped pistachios.

RASPBERRIES WITH RICOTTA CREAM

Steps:

• Place the ricotta in a small strainer set over a bowl and refrigerate for 30 minutes to drain the excess liquid.
• Transfer the drained ricotta to a food processor or blender, add the brown sugar and orange liqueur and process until smooth. (The ricotta mixture can be made up to 8 hours in advance and covered and kept refrigerated.)
• Divide the raspberries among 4 dessert bowls and top each with a 1/4 cup of the ricotta mixture. Add a splash of the orange liqueur or juice, and garnish with mint sprigs.

RASPBERRY-RICOTTA MOUSSE

Steps:

• In a food processor, blend the ricotta cheese until light and fluffy, about 20 seconds. Add the jam and pulse until combined. Transfer to a large bowl.
• In a separate bowl, using an electric hand mixer, beat the cream until thick. Add the powdered sugar and continue to beat until the cream holds stiff peaks. Working in batches, carefully fold the cream mixture into the ricotta mixture. Spoon the mousse into serving bowls and refrigerate for 1 hour. Garnish with fresh raspberries and serve.

RASPBERRY-RICOTTA CAKE WITH WHITE CHOCOLATE AND ALMONDS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan.
• Sift together flour, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg.
• Cream sugar and butter in a large bowl until light and fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes. Beat in eggs, 1 at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add ricotta cheese, vanilla, and almond extract and beat until thoroughly incorporated, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in 1/2 of the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Repeat with remaining dry ingredients.
• Measure out 1/4 cup raspberries and 2 tablespoons sliced almonds; set aside.
• Add remaining raspberries and almonds to the batter, along with white chocolate chips; gently fold to combine. Pour batter into the prepared pan and smooth into an even layer. Sprinkle reserved raspberries and almonds evenly over top, followed by turbinado sugar.
• Place the pan on top of a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs, 85 to 90 minutes. Allow cake to cool in the pan for 30 minutes, then gently run a table knife around the edges to loosen, and remove sides. Let cool completely before serving.

RASPBERRY RICOTTA CREME DESSERT

Steps:

• Mix jello and boiling water in a glass bowl; stir well until all jello is dissolved. Add the ice water, and stir well, to cool it down more quickly. Let cool to room temp., stirring to speed the cooling process. It does not need to congeal, just let it cool off so the ricotta doesn't melt when you mix it in.
• Spoon the room-temp ricotta cheese into the slightly-cooled jello mixture. Use a whisk, and stir well, breaking up and smoothing the ricotta.
• Gently stir in 1-cup (or more, to your liking) of frozen, mixed berries (comes in a bag of mixed strawberries, raspberries and blackberries).
• Gently fold in the 8-oz. tub of cool whip. Stir well, incorporating all the jello/ricotta mixture into the cool whip.
• Pour into individual serving bowls, or pour into a small jello mold and chill for several hours.
• Garnish with berries. *Can substitute orange sugar free jello and a small can - DRAINED! - of mandarin oranges or small can of drained pineapple tidbits. Use the drained, chilled juice from the oranges or pineapple as a substitute for the 1/2 cup of ice water, above, if you desire.
