Can cream cheese be used instead of ricotta?
Id depends on what your intended use is for the ricotta as to whether cream cheese may be substituted. In general i would say no because the two cheese while both being soft and white are very different in their textures and uses in food preparation and cooking. sometimes mascarpone and cream cheese are interchangeable but i would insist on using ricotta when a recipe requires it.
Can you use mascarpone cheese instead of ricotta?
I would say no. Mascarpone is sweet and creamy whereas ricotta is drier and bland. I would recommend you use a cream cheese (like Philadelphia) instead. You can use 8oz of Cream Cheese, 1/4 cup of Heavy whipping cream and 2 1/2 tbsp of Sour Cream and whip it together... This is VERY similar...! Just don't substitute anything in this mixture, and you should be set! Ricotta cheese is similar to cottage cheese. They can be substituted. It is also easy to make ricotta; whole milk, heavy cream, salt and white vinegar. dairy curdles. Mascarpone is similar to cream cheese just sweeter. It is used in desserts, where as the cream cheese usage would require more sugar.
