Zubereitung von Geppetto's Ricotta Cheese Pie
- **Prepare the Crust:** Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C). In a 9-inch pie plate, combine all crust ingredients and press firmly into the bottom and up the sides. Bake for 10 minutes.
- **Cool the Crust:** Remove from oven and let the crust cool completely.
- **Prepare the Filling:** In a food processor or blender, finely grind 1 cup of well-chilled chocolate chips.
- **Combine Cheese and Sugar:** In a large mixing bowl, beat together 32 ounces (4 cups) of ricotta cheese and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar until smooth and creamy.
- **Add Nuts and Chocolate:** Stir in 1 cup of ground nuts (such as pecans or walnuts) and the ground chocolate chips.
- **Whip the Cream:** In a separate bowl, partially whip 1 cup heavy cream.
- **Incorporate Almond Extract:** Add 1 teaspoon almond extract to the partially whipped cream and continue beating until stiff peaks form.
- **Fold in Cream:** Gently fold the whipped cream into the ricotta cheese mixture.
- **Fill the Crust:** Carefully spoon the filling into the cooled pie crust.
- **Chill:** Refrigerate for at least several hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the pie to set.
- **Garnish and Serve:** Just before serving, sprinkle generously with toasted slivered almonds and shaved chocolate.
