INGREDIENTS

  • Cake Layer

    • 🍫 1 (15.25 ounce) package chocolate cake mix
    • 💧 1 cup water
    • 🥚 3 large eggs
    • 🛢 1/2 cup vegetable oil

  • Ricotta Cheese Layer

    • 2 pints part-skim ricotta cheese
    • 🍚 3/4 cup white sugar
    • 🌿 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 🥚 4 large eggs

  • Topping

    • 🍫 1 (3.9 ounce) package instant chocolate pudding mix
    • 🥛 1 cup milk
    • 1 (12 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

2

Combine cake mix, water, 3 eggs, and oil in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until well combined, about 2 minutes. Pour batter into prepared baking dish. Set aside.

3

To make the ricotta cheese layer: Combine ricotta cheese, sugar, vanilla, and remaining 4 eggs in a separate bowl; blend well. Spread ricotta mixture evenly over the top of the cake batter.

4

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 1 hour 15 minutes if using a glass baking dish, or 1 1/2 hours if using a metal pan. Allow cake to cool completely before topping.

5

To make the topping: Blend pudding mix and milk until thickened. Blend in whipped topping. Spread over cooled cake.
