Mascarpone with Berries
This is an easy, no-cook dessert that is ready quickly. Feel free to add any extract you like to the mascarpone. Almond is a nice variant. If you make the berry compote, you can also add fresh herbs such as mint, thyme, or lavender.

- 8 ounces mascarpone cheese or ricotta
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup monk fruit powdered, or liquid monk fruit, to taste

- 1 cup fresh berries
Instructions
- Beat the mascarpone with the cream until very thick. Add the zest, monk fruit, salt, and vanilla and beat again.

Notes
I also like to serve the mascarpone with a berry compote, which is only a little bit more effort.
Compote:
1 tablespoons lemon juice (1 lemon)
1 tablespoons monk fruit, granulated
splash of vanilla extract
pinch of salt Combine the lemon juice, granulated monk fruit, salt, and vanilla. Pour over berries.
