To be honest, I feel like I still need to play around with this to see if I can get other variations to work- like I can't imagine why it wouldn't work with yogurt or sour cream, with a bit of adjustment, I just haven't done that yet.
Unfortunately, my stomach doesn't like the ricotta cheese and rebels after I eat it (I'm able to have certain other dairy without issue but not this) but I eat it anyhow because it's so darn good.
While I generally make this plain vanilla since my kids prefer it that way, I often make it marbled with chocolate inside, because it's absolutely divine that way.
