Enjoy this low-calorie twist on the classic Italian dessert:

Ingredients

• 1 1/4 cup part-skim ricotta
• 3/4 cup plain, nonfat Greek yogurt
• 1/4 cup honey or any sweetener
• 1 cup strong coffee
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon liqueur such as amaretto or cognac, optional
• 15 ladyfinger cookies
• 1 cup of fresh or frozen fruit
• Unsweetened cocoa for dusting

Directions

1. Whisk ricotta, Greek yogurt, and honey in a large bowl and refrigerate.
2. In a mug, mix coffee, vanilla, and liqueur (if using) and set aside.
3. Make a row of ~10 ladyfingers on a glass rectangular baking dish and drizzle each cookie with a teaspoon of coffee mixture. Cover with a thick layer of ricotta mixture and smooth with a spatula.
4. Add a row of the fruit and remaining ladyfingers, drizzle with coffee mixture, and cover with a second layer of ricotta mixture.
5. Smooth mixture and dust with cocoa.
6. Refrigerate or freeze for at least 30 minutes before serving.
7. Handy Hint: To avoid a mushy mess with the ladyfingers, drizzle, don’t soak, them with the coffee mixture.
