Cooking Time: No cooking required

Ingredients
2 cups smooth Ricotta cheese
3 heaping tbsp confectioners sugar
pinch of nutmeg
zest of one orange
2 tbsp Cointreau (orange liqueur), optional
1/4 cup fresh strawberries, quartered
1/4 cup fresh kiwi, diced
1/4 cup fresh mangoes, diced
1/4 cup fresh blackberries
1/4 cup fresh blueberries
1/4 cup fresh raspberries + garnish
1/4 cup almond, slices
1/4 cup chocolate shavings

Cooking Tools
Mixing bowl
Whisk

Directions
In a mixing bowl, add; Ricotta cheese, sugar, nutmeg, orange zest and Cointreau, (you can omit the alcohol).  Whip ingredients with a whisk until creamy and smooth.  Fold in fruit and almond slices gently, and just coat enough of the fruit with the cheese mixture.  Over mixing will bruise the delicate fruit and the fruit will start to bleed their color into the cheese mixture. Place in serving dishes and sprinkle with the chocolate shavings.  Garnish with a raspberry and place in refrigerator for 1 hour to chill before serving.
