Ingredients
  

1 cup fresh ricotta cheese

1/3 cup pistachios, shelled and chopped

2 tablespoons honey (plus extra for drizzling)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Zest of 1 lemon

1/4 cup graham cracker crumbs (optional for coating)

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

In a mixing bowl, combine the fresh ricotta cheese, chopped pistachios, honey, vanilla extract, sea salt, and lemon zest. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
