Notes
Make sure the ricotta cheese and mascarpone cheese are at room temperature before starting the recipe. This will help them blend together more easily and create a smoother consistency.
Don’t overmix the cheeses. Overmixing can cause the cheese to become grainy and affect the texture of the dip.
Want a smoother texture? Strain the ricotta cheese before adding it to the mixture.
Adjust the sweetness to your personal tastes. For a sweeter dip add more powdered sugar and if you prefer less sweetness, reduce the amount of powdered sugar.
