Ricotta Cheesecake

May 26, 2011

Ricotta cheescake is much lighter opposed to the American classic.  To make this cheescake spectacular, you should use the freshest ricotta you can find (it is worth a trip to the local farmer's market).  The fresh ricotta gives the cheesecake a softer texture so that it melts in your mouth. This recipe highlights the flavor of the ricotta by keeping other flavors to a minimum- a little lemon is all you need.
