These look really good...Must try! Thank you


I can notice that you like making those unusual recipes.This is really new.It sounds great.


I have to admit I've never added ricotta to a cookie dough - it must make the cookies very moist and rich. Another recipe I can't wait to try - very different!


When I was in Australia a few years ago I was served a bread that featured ricotta and honey, it was an amazing addition to the bread. I will definately be making these.


Have made ricotta Christmas cookies before, but of course can't find the recipe. These look so yummy, can't wait to try them, Thank you for the post.
