Steps:

• In a large bowl, beat ricotta, cream and honey until combined. Divide berries among 6 dessert dishes. Top with cream and hazelnuts. Refrigerate until serving.

Steps:

• 1. In a food processer add first 3 ingredients and mix for 1 minute. Transfer to a bowl and refrigerate for 1 hour (minimum).
• 2. Bring vinegar and sugar to a boil in a small pot; reduce to simmer for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Cool completely.
• 3. Toss basil and berries with balsamic sauce.
• 4. To plate, place cheese on bottom of a glass, spoon berries on top. Place a little fresh basil as garnish and half a strawberry on rim of glass. You may also wet the rim of glass ahead of time with a lemon wedge and dip rim in sugar for decoration.

Steps:

• 1. Begin by preparing your mousse. Beat cream in a bowl until it reaches the soft peak stage... then stop! Set aside.

• 3. Next, take the cream you've whipped and begin folding it into the cheese mixture. Take your time and go slowly.
• 4. You want a smooth texture. When complete, cover and chill for an hour or two.
