This Cake made with Almond and Ricotta and a few drops of dark chocolate is a fast and easy dessert to make, especially loved by children for a snack or for breakfast with a nice glass of milk to start the day.
The prerogative of each dessert is to be loved at first bite and this cake, rest assured, will give you just that; I managed to find a perfect balance between the intense flavor of the almonds and the delicacy of the ricotta… with no flour, Gluten-Free!!!
This dessert is made with cow’s milk ricotta and almonds, very finely chopped to obtain a flour texture. I chopped the almonds with the skin in order to give it a bit of a crunch but overall cake is very soft and moist because of the ricotta.
