We did like this, but just didnt care for the cheese filling. Still, an easy and quick breakfast! I may try again using softened cream cheese instead of the ricotta. -
I made a few improvements to this recipe since my husband didn't think the filling was sweet enough and I like fresh instead of frozen strawberries. Instead of the ricotta cheese I use about 10 oz cream cheese and 5 oz cottage cheese and a couple extra TBSPs of sugar. I also use 2 cups fresh strawberries and chop them up and mix them with a Tbsp of lemon juice and 1/3 cup of sugar in place of the frozen sweetened strawberries. Then it is no doubt a five star recipe! -
