This high-calcium "pudding" has the benefits of cocoa and cinnamon - and the flavor of Mexico. Experiment with different brands of ricotta - they have different textures and flavors.

1/2 cup lowfat ricotta cheese
2 tbsp mild honey
2 tbsp cocoa powder
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions:
1. Combine all the ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth.

2. Scoop into small dessert dishes and serve.

    I think what makes this super good is that you get the chocolate taste, the creamy texture and TEN grams of protien.

    I am making this!!

    It is very similar to cannoli w/o the pastery.

    Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm:heart:
