Hazelnut-Coated Ricotta Balls With Roasted Grapes
- 5 reduced-calorie vanilla wafers
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped hazelnuts, toasted
- 2 1/2 cups seedless red grapes (about 1 pound)
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- Preheat oven to 450u0b0.
- Place vanilla wafers in a food processor, and pulse 10 times or until coarse crumbs measure about 2 tablespoons. Combine wafer crumbs and nuts in a shallow dish, stirring to combine.
- With moist hands, shape Homemade Ricotta Cheese into 24 (1-inch) balls; roll balls in crumb mixture, coating on all sides. Place coated balls on a baking sheet; chill.
- Place grapes on a jelly-roll pan, and sprinkle with sugar. Bake at 450u0b0 for 17 minutes or until grapes begin to burst, stirring occasionally.
- Place 3 ricotta balls on each of 8 dessert plates; top each serving with about 1/4 cup grapes. Drizzle 1 tablespoon maple syrup over each serving.
