WW Recipe of the Day: Skinny Berry Ricotta Tiramisu Parfaits
Here's an easy tasty low fat berry ricotta tiramisu. It's the first recipe I've tried from Fabulicious! Fast and Fit: Teresa's Low-Fat, Super-Easy Italian Recipes (affiliate link), which I borrowed from the library.
We're big tiramisu lovers. Made the traditional way with eggs and mascarpone - one of the richest creamiest cheeses on the planet - it's decadently delicious.
I love light and easy no cook recipes like this. All it takes is a little assembly to create an impressive dessert. What could be easier?
The Skinny on Berry Ricotta Tiramisu
This recipe uses a combination of low fat ricotta cheese and skim milk to replace the mascarpone. Using little glasses keeps dessert perfectly portion controlled.
I didn't have quite enough ricotta mixture to distribute among my four glasses. So I made a little more and changed my recipe here accordingly.
I liked this skinny berry ricotta tiramisu. But it tasted more like cannoli than tiramisu.
A huge cannoli lover, I'd definitely make these parfaits again.
