Ingredients
- 1¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 10 tablespoons unsalted butter softened
- 1 ⅓ cups sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 15 ounce container whole milk ricotta cheese
- 1 cup mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit. Spray a 10-inch springform pan with pan spray and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, use a hand mixer or a stand mixer to beat together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each one. Add the vanilla and ricotta and beat until combined.
- Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl and add the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined. Use a spatula to fold in the chocolate chips.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean from the center and the center springs back when you gently press on it.
- Let the cake cool completely before serving. If desired, dust with powdered sugar.
