These cheesy Smokin' Savoury Ricotta Cakes give the impression that significantly more work goes into them than does. Perfect for impressing guests when on a tight time-budget. Bake these in muffin tins to yield about 18 crunchy, gooey rounds. Smoked cheese of any kind will be the key flavor, enhanced subtly by lime zest and scallion. Serve them with any kind of dips, but make sure you have some first as they aren't guaranteed to last long as soon as guests arrive!
