Ricotta and strawberry cup for Mother’s Day, no-bake and easy to make.
For this recipe, you need to soak a gelatin sheet to achieve a quite creamy texture and not mushy, following the advice I leave you right below.
Be careful to soak and squeeze it well to avoid pieces of gelatin being annoying when consuming the dessert.
If you want, you can dissolve the gelatin sheet in a tiny bit of milk and then, once it has cooled down well, combine it with the rest of the ingredients in the bowl.

Steps
To make the Ricotta and Strawberry Cup for Mother’s Day, first clean the strawberries well, removing the stems after washing them well and drying them with a cloth.
Cut them into thin slices and set aside a couple of strawberries to slice at the time of final decoration.
Put them into the blender jug with the ricotta and powdered sugar and blend until you get a creamy consistency.
Meanwhile, soak the gelatin sheets in a glass with a little cold water.
If you wish, you can dissolve it, broken into two or three tablespoons of warm water or milk.Add the gelatin (well squeezed, if used cold) to the blender with the other ingredients and blend for a few seconds until the gelatin is well incorporated into the other ingredients.
Transfer the mixture into two cups and let rest in the refrigerator for at least two hours.
After washing and drying the blender jug and blades, finely blend the cookies.
Retrieve the cups after the resting time and garnish them with the finely pressed cookie powder with a spoon.
Complete the decoration with the remaining sliced strawberries and bring to the table.
You can make more cups by dividing the mixture into equal parts in smaller cups.
