Ingredients

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup white chocolate coarsely chopped (9 ounces)
  • 1¼ cups fresh ricotta cheese room temperature (11 ounces)
  • Garnish: confectioners’ sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line the bottom of a 9- x 9-inch pan with parchment paper and grease the sides.
  • Whip eggs in an electric mixer until very, very fluffy, about 5 to 6 minutes.
  • Melt white chocolate in a double boiler until smooth. Allow to cool for a few minutes.
  • Fold together melted chocolate and eggs.
  • Add ricotta and combine well, gently.
  • Pour mixture into prepared pan.
  • Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until golden. The cake is ready when the sides are slightly crusty, but the inside is still soft.
  • Once cooled, cover and let sit in the fridge overnight.
  • To serve, garnish with confectioners’ sugar before slicing.
