Ingredients

Servings

MAKE THE BROWN SUGAR PIE CRUST

RICOTTA FILLING

  • ¾ cup ricotta cheese
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup mini chocolate chips
  • ½-1 tablespoon lemon zest

Instructions

  1. Drain your ricotta cheese either with a sieve or cheesecloth for at least an hour.  If the cheese is extremely watery then leave it in the sieve in a covered bowl for 24 hours.

Make the Pastry Crust

  1. Make the Pastry Crust as per instructions, use half the dough for this recipe, (the other half can be frozen).
  2. Pre-heat oven to 350F (180 C), line one or two cookie sheets with parchment paper.
  3. In a medium bowl mix together the ricotta and sugar until creamy, then gently stir in the mini chocolate chips and zest.
  4. Roll out half the dough to a ⅛ inch thickness, cut out round with a medium size round cookie cutter, place a teaspoonful of filling on one side of the round cover with the unfilled side.  Seal the edges well first with wet fingers then with the tongs of a fork, place on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet and bake for approximately 15-20 minutes or until golden.  Let cool, dust with powdered sugar if desired.  Enjoy!

Notes

  • Instead of the brown sugar pie crust you could substitute with a typical Italian pie dough (pasta frolla), or a traditional pie dough, a chocolate pie crust or why not try a yogurt pie dough or even an almond crust?
  • Like most baked goods they are really delicious just baked but if you do happen to have leftovers be sure to store them in an airtight container and refrigerate, they should keep for a day or two. I would warm them up in the oven or microwave before serving.
  • To freeze the baked ravioli, place in a freezer safe container, separated by parchment paper, they will keep for up to 3 months in the freezer. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight, bring to room temperature and dust with powdered sugar before serving.
