Italian Ricotta Cheesecake ???????? ???? ????| #cheesecake
This light, citrusy cheesecake is made with ricotta cheese and cream cheese. The cake, itself, is not too sweet, and the orange zest makes this Italian ricotta cheesecake taste bright and fresh. Italians use almonds in so many desserts, so we swapped out a graham cracker crust for a nutty almond crust and garnished each piece with some marocchino cherries and a slice of orange. So good!
I was so happy to have Gino Gerasole bake with me today. Gino is my friend and co-owner of Girasole restaurant in Pittsburgh, PA:
Even though this Italian ricotta cheesecake is a dessert we Italian-Americans seem to make around the Easter holiday, it's fitting for any time of the year. Because its texture is lighter than other types of cheesecakes, this ricotta cheesecake is perfect for spring, even summer.
I wrote a story about my Easters growing up called, Easter Polaroids. You can read the story and get the written recipe here:

Italian Lemon Ricotta Cake Recipe - NO FLOUR
This cake melts in your mouth. It's a mix between a cake and a cheesecake. It's fragrant and delicious. I hope you give it a try.
RECIPE:
300 g ricotta (1 cup + 1/2 cup or 10.6 oz)
100 g sugar (1/2 cup)
40 g butter (3 tbsp)
3 eggs
50 g cornstarch (1/3 cup)
1 tsp vanilla extract
30 g lemon juice (2 tbsp)
lemon zest
NOTES:
- Use the same size pan as mine. This is the pan I used: OR you can buy the complete set of springform pans set:
- If the Ricotta you use it's wetter than the one I used, I suggest draining for a bit to remove the excess liquid.
- Clean and dry well the whisks before whipping up the egg whites
