A deliciously simple dessert with raspberries and ricotta cheese.
from: Life With Lorelai
Type: Dessert
Ingredients:
The measurements for this recipe are also rustic -- rough approximations by taste
3/4 Cup - Ricotta Cheese (I used Fat Free)
2 Tablespoons - Honey
1/2 Cup - Raspberry Jam
1 Pie Crust (store bought or make your own)
Sugar and Chocolate (to sprinkle on crust)
Heavy Whipping Cream (to coat crust top edge, whip, and ganache)
Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
Fresh Raspberries
Directions:
FOR THE GALETTE:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees
Line a baking sheet with Parchment Paper
Layout pie crust on parchment
In a medium bowl mix Ricotta Cheese and Honey
Spread ricotta mixture in the center of pie crust, leaving a wide edge to fold over the top
Spread Raspberry Jam over the ricotta cheese
Fold crust edges over the top of spreads, but leaving the center open
Pinch crust edges together as needed
Paint top crust edge with cream and dust with sugar and chocolate
Bake at 375° F for 45 minutes
NOTE -- After Baking, let galette stand on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack for further cooling.
FOR THE GANACHE:
In a double boiler add Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips and a splash of Heavy Cream (The ganache is just for a garnishing drizzle, so you do not need a lot. Start with smaller amounts of chips and cream, you can always add more).
Add cream to thin the chocolate as needed and stir until smooth and glossy.
GARNISHING THE GALETTE:
Garnish with a ring of whipped cream and fresh raspberries. Drizzle with ganache.
Notes
We made this galette for Valentine's Day, so we piped a whipped cream heart in the center of the galette and topped with a fresh raspberry.
