Did you blanch the leaves? I've found that that cuts the intensity, as well as not using all of the bulbs. I've also tried sauteing the bulbs, before tossing into the Cuisinart.
mixing in another green like spinach or peas might be a nice way to mellow out the flavor. As with boulangere's suggestion, you'd add some more cheese and olive oil as well.
Try thinning out the intensity of the ramps by adding an equal amount of basil and Italian parsley, and add some more cheese and olive oil - the fat will help dissipate the heat across your palate. I've done the same thing, incidentally, by getting too carried away with adding garlic to pesto. I'm surprised it didn't explode.
