Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Break the white chocolate into small pieces and place it in a heatproof bowl.
- Melt the white chocolate using a double boiler method: place the bowl over a pot of simmering water, ensuring the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. Stir frequently until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
- Alternatively, you can melt the chocolate in the microwave: heat in 20-30 second intervals, stirring in between, until fully melted.
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, sugar, and orange juice. Mix until smooth and the sugar is fully dissolved.
- Once the white chocolate has slightly cooled but is still liquefied, slowly add it to the ricotta mixture. Stir continuously to ensure a smooth blend and avoid any lump formation.
- In a separate mixing bowl, pour the heavy whipping cream. Using an electric mixer, whip the cream on medium-high speed until it forms stiff peaks. This will take about 3-4 minutes.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the ricotta and white chocolate mixture. Use a spatula and carefully mix until well incorporated, ensuring you maintain the airy texture of the whipped cream.
- Peel the oranges, making sure to remove all the white pith.
- Slice or segment the oranges as preferred. If slicing, aim for even, round slices about 1/4 inch thick.
- In serving dishes, arrange the orange slices or segments.
- Spoon the white chocolate cream over the top of the oranges, distributing it evenly.
- For a refreshing dessert, you can chill the assembled dishes in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before serving.
- Garnish with additional orange zest, cocoa or a sprig of mint if desired.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Tips:
- Ensure the white chocolate is finely chopped for easier melting.
- Use freshly squeezed orange juice for the best flavor.
- Chill the mixing bowl and beaters before whipping the cream to achieve the perfect consistency.
- For a smoother texture, make sure the ricotta cheese is well-drained before mixing.
- Garnish with a few orange zest curls for an added touch of elegance.
- Serve the dessert chilled for the best taste and texture experience.
