Instructions:
-
In a bowl, mix the egg yolks, sugar, cornstarch, and strained orange juice.
-
Add the milk, lemon zest, and vanilla sugar (or extract) to the mixture.
-
Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens slightly.
Do not let it boil—just heat it enough to activate the cornstarch. -
In another bowl, mix the sweetened condensed milk and ricotta, mashing well until you get a smooth texture.
-
Add the whipped cream and beat with a mixer until the mixture doubles in volume and becomes airy.
-
Gently fold the cooled orange cream into the whipped mixture, stirring carefully to maintain the light texture.
-
Spoon into individual cups or a serving dish and finish with lemon or orange zest, cinnamon, or cocoa powder—whichever you prefer.
-
Serve immediately or chill in the fridge for 10 to 15 minutes for extra freshness.
Tips:
-
Adjust the amount of sugar or condensed milk to your taste.
-
For an extra special flavor, add citrus fruit pieces or a touch of grated coconut.
