These muffins/"biscuits" are delicious. It's hard to just eat one. I used part skim ricotta instead of regular. I also used slivered almonds instead of sliced. The crunch of the almond adds that extra touch. I have not been disappointed with anything I have made from Giada's show.

These are elegant and light. Truly different. I watch Giada religiously now. This may have been the first recipe I tried of hers. If this is Italian cooking, it took Giada for me to like it. Her recipes are incredible. In fact, now I'm not so jealous of how beautiful and thin she is. Okay, I am.

I wasn't sure about these when I first heard that the ricotta cheese went into them. I tried them...they are awesome. They are the best muffins I have ever had. I plan on making them for fellow employees. My family just loved them! These are a winner Giada.

These are so good...they have a very curious, unusual flavor and consistency. We all really enjoyed them! Can't wait to serve them at a tea party. I think they look elegant, but it's their flavor that impresses one.
Thanks for a terrific recipe, Giada!

I made these for work, and everyone was so upset when they were gone. Everyone loved them!

Reminded me of my childhood.

These were fantastic!!!! I took the advice of others and used 3/4 cup of sugar, used 2 TB of fresh lemon juice and fat free ricotta cheese. These were a huge hit and can't wait to make them again. The top was so crunchy and the inside was fluffy and perfect. YUM.

Thanks, Giada for another great recipe! These were very tasty. I will definitely make them again. I might add even more lemon zest next time to boost the flavor. To make use of the juice from the zested lemons, I made the "Hearty Boys" Lemon-Basil pasta salad at the same time that I made these biscuits. It was good too, so check out that recipe if you want somewhere to use the extra lemon juice.

I was looking for a recipe where I could use some leftover ricotta in the fridge and found this wonderful recipe. They are light, fluffy and are more like a muffin which is good. I took the advise from one of the other reviewers to cut back on the butter (1/2 stick, used part skim ricotta cheese and used 4TBS of lemon juice. These are definitely a new family favorite and very easy to make!

Can't count how many times I baked delicious muffins. I even gave them to my daughter for the fund raising at school - the biscuits were sold within minutes! Giada - you're the best. Keep up the good work!
