Ingredients
  

  • 2 Large Eggs
  • 1 Large Egg Yolk
  • 1 Cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1 Teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 1 Cup Ricotta Cheese drained of any excess liquid
  • 2 Cups All Purpose Flour
  • 1 1/2 Teaspoons Baking Powder
  • 1/8 Teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • 1/2 Cup Mini Chocolate Chips dusted with flour

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a 9 inch cake pan.
  • In a large bowl, beat the eggs, egg yolk and sugar until creamy and light.
  • Add the vanilla and the ricotta cheese and beat to combine. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, salt and baking powder. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and combine.
  • Fold in the mini chocolate chips.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan and place in the oven.
  • Bake for 30-40 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean from the middle.
  • Cool and remove from the pan. Slice and enjoy.

Notes

  • pour chocolate chips into a bowl and toss with a tablespoon of flour.  This will help suspend the chips in the batter and keep them from falling to the bottom.
