Servings: 6

 

Ingredients:

1 store-bought angel food cake

1 1/2 pints total mixed berries such as blueberries, strawberries, raspberries or blackberries

3 tablespoons honey

1 lemon, zested

1 shot limoncello, look for the small airplane size bottles if you don't want the investment of a larger one

3 cups whole milk ricotta cheese

1/2 cup sugar

Water

Equipment:

sauce pan

bowl

pastry brush

Cooking instruction summary:

Place the sugar in a small sauce pan, add enough water for it to resemble wet sand. Place over medium-high heat and bring up to a bubble, simmer until the sugar has dissolved in the water. Remove from the heat and add the limoncello, let it cool while you prepare the cake and filling. In a bowl combine the lemon zest, ricotta cheese and the honey. Cut the angel food cake into 3 slices horizontally; make sure the slices are of equal thickness so that you end up with 3 doughnut looking slices of the same thickness. Arrange the bottom slice on a serving plate. With a pastry brush drench the slice with 1/3 of the limoncello mixture, top the slice with a 1/2 of the ricotta cheese mixture, repeat with the next layer and finish the top with the last 1/3 of the limoncello mixture. Slice and serve alongside some mixed berries.

Food Joke

Juan was driving down a country lane in his pickup when suddenly a chicken darted into the road in front of him. He slammed on his brakes, but realized that the chicken wasspeeding off down the road at about 30 miles an hour. Intrigued, he tried to follow the bird with his truck, but he couldn`t catch up to the accelerating chicken. Seeing itturn into a small farm, Juan followed it. To his astonishment, he realized that the chicken had three legs. Looking around the small farm, he noticed that ALL of thechickens had three legs.The farmer came out of his house, and Juan said, "Three-legged chickens? That`s astonishing!"The farmer replied, "Yep. I bred `em that way because I love drumsticks."Juan was curious. "How does a three-legged chicken taste?"The farmer smiled. "Dunno. Haven`t been able to catch one yet."
