How to Make Ricotta Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- Prepare your favorite white cake mix according to package directions. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
- In a separate bowl, combine 15 ounces (425g) of ricotta cheese, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 1/2 cup (100g) of granulated sugar. Beat with a hand mixer until smooth and creamy.
- Using a spoon, drop spoonfuls of the ricotta mixture evenly over the cake batter in the pan. Space them as closely together as possible.
- Bake for 25 minutes. Then, sprinkle with a mixture of 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon.
- Continue baking for another 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool completely before serving. The ricotta will settle on the bottom, creating a delightful contrast of textures and flavors.
- Enjoy your incredibly moist and delicious ricotta cake!
