Ingredients:

Serving

1/2 cup part-skim ricotta cheese
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
3 tbsp heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
4 tbsp powdered sugar
1 pinch ground cinnamon
1/2 pint fresh blueberries (dry pint, about 1 cup)
16 oz fresh strawberries, hulled, quartered (about 3 cups)
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp fresh lime juice
4 tbsp chopped pecans or 4 tbsp chopped hazelnuts or 4 tbsp sliced almonds, toasted

Directions:

Cannoli Cream: - Stir the ricotta, vanilla and 3 tablespoons of cream in a medium bowl to blend.
Using an electric mixer, beat the remaining 1/2 cup of cream, powdered sugar, and cinnamon in a large bowl until semi-firm peaks form.
Fold the ricotta into the whipped cream. Place in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes to stiffen and yield a creamier filling. (Can be prepared 1 hour ahead. Cover and refrigerate.).
Sweet Berries: - Toss the berries, sugar, and lime juice in a medium bowl to combine. Let stand until juices form, tossing occasionally, about 20 minutes.
Ready to Serve: - Divide berries among dessert dishes.
Dollop the ricotta cream atop the berries. Sprinkle with the nuts and serve. :).
