If you are looking for an easy and delicious dessert, look no further you've found it! I had some good friends over for dinner tonight and I wanted a dessert that wouldn't be too overwhelmingly sweet, yet curb that end of night sweet tooth that I have so terribly developed. After scrambling thru my refrigerator and cabinets, things were looking rather bleak. Then, suddenly, as I pushed back what seemed to be the endless amounts of yogurt, there was my dessert savior hiding in the back of my fridge....THE RICOTTA CHEESE! I am no master chef like my business partner Renee, but I had remembered this fabulous dessert she once made for us and I figured with a little help from Google and the ingredients I had on hand, I could make this into something delicious!
 The recipe is as follows:
Blend 1 cup of ricotta cheese with 2 tablespoons of honey and a 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract until smooth. Refrigerate for 2 hours.
Boil 3 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar with 2 tablespoons of sugar. Let it simmer for about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Let this mixture completely cool down, I let it sit for a few minutes then places in the fridge for a few more.
Chop up a handful of fresh basil.
Cut up a 16 oz container of strawberries and mix with the chopped basil and the balsamic syrup. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
When its time for dessert scoop out the delicious ricotta mixture and then top it with the strawberry mixture and enjoy!! I personally enjoyed alongside a great glass of wine...this step I also highly suggest!
I hope that anyone and everyone that tries this recipe finds it as delicious as I did! If anyone has a similar recipe please share any other adaptations you have tried I would love the feedback!
