Filling
1
container (15 oz) whole-milk ricotta cheese

1
box Pillsbury® refrigerated pie crusts, softened as directed on box
3
tablespoons turbinado sugar (raw sugar)
1
teaspoon ground cinnamon
Garnish

DIRECTIONS
1
In large bowl, beat all filling ingredients with electric mixer on medium speed until creamy. Place filling in 1-gallon resealable food-storage plastic bag; refrigerate while making cups.

Heat oven to 425°F. On lightly floured work surface, unroll pie crusts. Sprinkle each crust with turbinado sugar and cinnamon. Lightly roll rolling pin over sugar and cinnamon to press into pastry. With 2 1/2- to 3-inch round cutter, cut out pastry rounds. Lightly press each pastry round into ungreased mini muffin cup.
