  4. Once chilled, whip the heavy whipping cream in a separate bowl until soft peaks form.

  5. Gently fold the whipped cream into the chilled ricotta mixture, ensuring it is evenly combined but being careful not to deflate the cream.

  6. Transfer the combined mixture into an ice cream machine and freeze according to the manufacturer’s instructions until it reaches a creamy, gelato-like consistency.

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, you can substitute part of the powdered sugar with honey or maple syrup.
  • Experiment with different liqueurs or flavorings to customize the taste of your gelato.
  • Ensure the ricotta cheese is well-drained to prevent excess moisture in the final product.
  • To make the gelato ahead of time, store it in an airtight container in the freezer, allowing it to soften slightly at room temperature before serving for the best texture.

Indulge in the velvety smoothness of Gelato di Ricotta, a decadent frozen dessert that’s sure to delight your taste buds with its luxurious flavor and creamy texture. 🍨✨
