Crema Di Mascarpone (Chilled Cheese Dessert) - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 lb mascarpone (ricotta or cream cheese may be used)
    1/2 cup sugar
    4 egg yolks (lightly beaten)
    2 tablespoons heavy cream
    2 tablespoons cognac (or other Brandy)
Preparation
    Blend the cheese in an electric blender till very smooth.
    Beat in the sugar, egg yolks, cream & Cognac till the mixture is very smooth & thick. Refrigerate till well-chilled.
    To Serve: Spoon chilled crema into 4-6 sml dessert bowls, ramekins or goblets. Fresh raspberries or strawberries were suggested as the ideal garnish, but I think a wide variety of imaginative choices would also work well.
