Ingredients

For the mousse

  • 16 oz anthotiro or ricotta cheese room temperature
  • 16 oz lowfat Greek Yogurt
  • 6 tablespoons sugar
  • 2-3 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • a pinch of salt

For the crust

  • 4-5 tablespoons shelled pistachios unsalted
  • 2-3 dried figs
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons sugar

Instructions

  1. In a food processor mix the pistachios, cinnamon, figs and sugar until almost powdery.
  2. Take 8 serving glasses (I used these small martini glasses-but glasses with a flat bottom can work better for the crust) and press the crust in the base.
  3. Wash the food processor and this time mix the the cheese, yogurt, lemon juice, vanilla, sugar, and salt until smooth for about 5 minutes. (I tried this with a hand mixer and did not work very well).
  4. Spoon the mixture in the glasses, it will be a bit liquidy.
  5. Put the glasses in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours before serving.
  6. Serve with some fresh fruit on top.
