Cake Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Prepare Batter

    In a large bowl, combine ricotta cheese and sugar. Mix until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla, mixing well. Gradually add the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.

  4. 4

    Bake

    Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  5. 5

    Cool

    Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
