9. Easy Cake Mix Ricotta cake

This is an amazingly simple and great cake that can be easily personalized into something of your very own.



2 lbs. ricotta cheese
3/4 c. sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla or almond extract
3 eggs, lightly beaten
1 (18 1/2 oz.) pkg. yellow or lemon cake mix with pudding
Mix together the ricotta cheese, sugar, vanilla and eggs. Set aside. Prepare the cake mix according to the package directions. Pour into a greased and floured 9 x 13 inch pan. Carefully spoon the ricotta mixture over the batter. Bake at 350 degrees for 60 to 65 minutes or until cool. When the cake is done, sprinkle with powdered sugar.

I've made this with coconut added to the ricotta mix with a chocolate cake mix for a "Mounds" cake. Add toasted almonds and almond extract for an "Almond Joy".


My sister makes this and adds strawberries on top.

I've thought about adding some espresso to the ricotta mix and using a chocolate mix for a tiramisu cake.
