How to Make Cocoa Ricotta

  1. Combine 1/4 cup of water and 2 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder in a microwave-safe bowl.
  2. Microwave on high for 30-60 seconds, or until the cocoa powder is completely melted and smooth, stirring halfway through.
  3. Add 1 cup of ricotta cheese and your preferred sugar substitute (approximately 1-2 tablespoons, to taste).
  4. Stir until well combined and the sugar substitute has dissolved.
  5. Microwave on low for 15-30 seconds, or until the mixture is gently warmed. Do not overheat; you want it warm, not hot.
  6. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious, low-GI treat!
