Ingredients
  

  • 1 sheet frozen puff pastry partially thawed
  • 3/4 cup light ricotta cheese you can use full fat if you wish
  • 4 tbsp. confectioners sugar divided
  • 1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp finally grated orange zest
  • 1/4 cup roasted salted pistachios shells removed and chopped
  • 1/2 pint fresh raspberries I use organic

Instructions

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees and line cookie tray with parchment paper
  • Cut pastry to 4 rectangles, measuring 3" by 6" each
  • Place each rectangle on prepared cookie sheet and pierce all over with a fork. Cover with another sheet of parchment and place another cookie sheet on top.
  • Place this in the oven and bake for 15 minutes.
  • Remove top cookie sheet and parchment paper and continue baking for approximately 2 to 5 minutes (it took mine 3 1/2 minutes) or just until golden.
  • Remove from oven and allow to cool completely.
  • Meanwhile in a mixing bowl, stir together ricotta cheese, vanilla extract, 3 tbsp. confectioners sugar and orange zest.
  • Divide the cheese mixture between two of the pastry rectangles, spreading just to edges. Sprinkle each with pistachios and then arrange raspberries over pistachios.
  • Cover raspberries with the remaining two pastry rectangles.
  • Sprinkle each with remaining tbsp. of confectioners sugar.
