I had some lovely raspberries that I wanted to use in some baking and came across this interesting recipe, I liked that it used ricotta cheese in it.<\/p>\n

In the end I wasn’t too sure about these cakes, they were OK but nothing special. I liked the little hit of raspberries but I wasn’t as keen on the texture, I found them slightly dense and not spongey, however they do look cute and they tasted nice. Maybe I needed to eat them with some thick cream or ice-cream.  <\/p>\n

      Notes<\/div>\t\t\t
        \t\t\t\t
      1. * I didn't have enough ricotta for 11\/2 cups. The tub I brought (250g) wasn't enough so I used greek yoghurt for the rest. If you wanted to use the full amount of ricotta, you may need approx 355g.<\/li>\t\t\t<\/ol>\n\t\t<\/div>
