Happy Easter!

Happy Easter! I hope everyone had as nice of a day as I did. I hosted my first Easter lunch (my first holiday event period), and it went very well. The slow-cooked cranberry pork loin I made was a hit, and the ricotta cake I baked was an even bigger hit. Both were delicious, but the cake was especially good. So here's the recipe and a few pics. 


Ricotta Cake


Ingredients:


  • One 18-1/4 ounce package yellow cake mix

  • 1 cup sugar

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

  • 4 eggs

  • 2 pounds ricotta

  • Directions:
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease oblong 13 x 9 baking pan. Mix ricotta, sugar, eggs and vanilla in large bowl. Add yellow cake mix. Mix well. Bake 55 minutes to an hour. Cool and invert. And voila!


    It's a moist cake that's very filling. I'll definitely be making it again. 
    Btw, my car was an easy fix. Thank God for small miracles.
