I feel bad for you. Did they put you to sleep or let you have gas the whole time? I was in a similar situation, where the dentist couldn't operate because of the teeth going into the skull & such. Oh, what fun! I hope you feel better soon. This may not be of much help, but it looked really good. AND, even if you can't eat it yet, it's something to look forward to making in a week or so.
Fruit Salad with Cannoli Cream, compliments of Giada
1/3 cup whole milk ricotta cheese 2 tablespoons plus 1/3 cup whipping cream 3 tablespoons powdered sugar Pinch ground cinnamon 12 ounces fresh strawberries, hulled, quartered (about 2 1/2 cups) 1/2 dry pint fresh raspberries (about 1 1/4 cups) 1 tablespoon sugar 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice 2 kiwi, peeled, cut into 1/2-inch pieces 3 tablespoons sliced almonds, toasted Stir the ricotta and 2 tablespoons of cream in a medium bowl to blend. Using an electric mixer, beat the remaining 1/3 cup of cream, powdered sugar, and cinnamon in a large bowl until semi-firm peaks form. Fold the ricotta into the whipped cream. Place in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to stiffen and yield a creamier filling. (Can be prepared 4 hours ahead. Cover and refrigerate.) Toss the strawberries, raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice in a medium bowl to combine. Let stand until juices form, tossing occasionally, about 15 minutes. Add the kiwi. Spoon the fruit mixture into 4 dessert bowls. Dollop the ricotta cream atop the fruit. Sprinkle with the almonds and serve.
