This is an Old Family friend recipe. She makes it at Easter and Christmas only. I had it at my Baby shower and there was none left it was that good. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do. Ingredients:
2 (2 lb) containers ricotta cheese |
9 eggs, beaten |
1 lb confectioners' sugar |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1 box pie crust mix, prepare as directed on box save some for lattice top |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 2. Beat ricotta and eggs together. 3. Add vanilla and sugar, mix well. 4. Line a 13x9 inch pan with dough. 5. Pour batter over. 6. Cover with a lattice top with the remaining crust. 7. Bake 350 degrees, check after 1 hour, 1 inch in from side with a knife, if clean it is done. 8. If not check in increments of 5 minutes until the knife comes out clean. 9. You may need a bigger pan, it depends on how runny the ricotta is. 10. Let cool on a rack and then cut into 2 inch squares, it is very heavy, a little goes a long way. 11. Refrigerate leftovers immediately. |
