Ingredients

1 carton (15 ounces) part-skim or non-fat ricotta cheese
6 tablespoons sugar, or 4 packets sugar substitute
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, preferably Dutch process
2 tablespoons coffee liqueur (or 1 tablespoon each coffee liqueur and brandy)
1 tablespoon instant espresso coffee crystals
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2-3 tablespoons evaporated skim milk

Instructions

Put ricotta, sugar, cocoa, liqueur, coffee crystals and vanilla into a food processor or blender; process 5 seconds. Scrape down mixture from the sides of the bowl and process 5 seconds more. With motor running, add milk through the feed tube or lid, 1 tablespoon at a time, only until mixture is the consistency of chocolate pudding. Continue processing until absolutely smooth, 8 to 10 seconds more. Divide among six 4- to 5-ounce ramekins or serving dishes. Serve at once or refrigerate covered until ready to serve.

UCSF Researchers say products with added sugar should be controlled just like alcohol or tobacco. They are advocating that the government take control of the situation because the citizens are unable to do so. The solutions they suggest include doubling the price of sodas via a sugar tax, put age restrictions on purchase of products containing added sugar and legislate which stores are allowed to sell products with added sugar.
