Steps:
- Cook the Ricotta cheese and butter on low to medium heat.
- (Sometimes the Ricotta splatters; keep it half covered at low to medium heat, stirring often to avoid burning.) After about ½ hour, stir in the sugar and dry milk.
- Cook, while stirring, until the Ricotta is of dry consistency, like paste that can be easily spread (10 to 15 minutes).
- Mix in the almonds and crushed cardamom.
- Spread in a non-stick 12x18" cookie sheet, about 1/3 inches thick.
- Pat gently with wax paper or spatula to make it even.
- Cover with the varak sheets for decorative look.
- Cut into squares or diamond shape when cool.
- Store in the refrigerator.
- Variation: Cook the Ricotta in the microwave oven, starting with 5 minutes at high.
- You can also cook it in the conventional oven.
- May add about ½ cup cocoa powder along with sugar to give chocolate taste and look.
- Or add about 1 cup slightly roasted and ground sesame seeds, along with other nuts, towards the end of cooking.
