12 ounces frozen unsweetened raspberries
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup raspberry liqueur
1 cup marsala (find in liqueur aisle)
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted

  • Melt chocolate chips (this can be done in a microwave or in a double boiler).
  • Assemble mousse in food processor: start by blending ricotta and vanilla until smooth. Add Marsala syrup and melted chocolate; process until smooth. Add half of Cool Whip; process. Add other half and process gently to combine.
  • Place mousse in refrigerate to set for at least 2 hours.
  • To serve, place a pool of raspberry coulis on a plate and top with a scoop of mousse. Garnish with a mint leaf and fresh raspberry if desired.
