This is great! I did, however, change things up a bit. I used 1 pound Italian sausage in place of the ground beef, 2 1/2 cups of cottage cheese in place of the ricotta, and sprinkled shredded mozzerella cheese on top before popping it in the oven. Then once the 40 minutes was up, I uncovered it and sprinlkled the parmesan over top before putting it back in. Yummy!

Yum! I added a teaspoon of vanilla extract and 2 teaspoons of lemon extract to give it a lemon flavor. Then added some yellow sprinkles to the tops. For a little extra flavor and interest, I melted a little almond bark, mixed in some more lemon extract and yellow food color, and dipped the bottoms of the cookies in it when they were cool. I set them on wax paper to dry and they came out very nice! A refreshing treat for summertime or any time!
