Ingredients
1 cup fresh ricotta cheese
½ cup finely chopped pistachios
¼ cup pure honey (plus extra for drizzling)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch of salt

Chopped pistachios
Edible flower petals
Cocoa powder
Instructions
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese, chopped pistachios, honey, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir until smooth and well-combined.
- Using your hands or a spoon, scoop small amounts of the ricotta mixture and roll them into bite-sized balls. Aim for 10-12 bites depending on your preference.
- Optional: Roll the bites in chopped pistachios, dust with cocoa powder, or top with edible flower petals for added flavor and a decorative touch.
- Drizzle the bites with extra honey for a glossy finish and a touch of sweetness.
- Serve immediately or refrigerate for 15-30 minutes to firm up. These bites can be enjoyed cold or at room temperature.
Notes
Use fresh ricotta for the best flavor and texture. If using store-bought ricotta, drain well to avoid excess liquid.
Feel free to get creative with toppings like crushed nuts, shredded coconut, or cinnamon for variety.
Adjust the amount of honey based on your sweetness preference.
