Today the Rock milked the cow and I had 8 litres of milk to play with. I decided to make mozzarella but maybe because the rennet was old or Im a crap Cheese maker all I got was a pasty cross between ricotta and quark. But i was not to be shamed. I found this recipe for Ricotta cakes They are a cross between a Sally Lunn and a scone. light tasty and rich. I added some currants and choc bits for interest. I wont ice them as they are sweet enough.
