LOVE CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Grease the bottom and sides of a 13 by 9 by 2-inch baking pan with vegetable spray. Dust all over with flour, shaking out excess. Set aside.
• In a large mixing bowl, add 4 eggs, vegetable oil, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, water and cake mix. Reserve the fudge package for another use. Using an electric mixer with whisk attachment, whisk until well combined, about 3 minutes.
• Into another mixing bowl, add ricotta cheese, 4 eggs, 1 tablespoon vanilla extract and 3/4 cup of granulated sugar. Add chocolate chips. Whisk until well combined, about 2 minutes.
• Pour 2/3 cup of the cake batter into the pan. Add cocoa powder to the remaining batter and pour over the batter in the pan. Gently swirl in the cocoa batter creating a marble look. Pour the ricotta mixture over the batter and place the pan on middle rack in the oven. Bake for 1 hour. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean, the cake is cooked.
• Remove cake from oven and set aside to completely cool.
• To make the frosting, in a large bowl, add package of chocolate pudding and cold milk. Using an electric mixer, whisk until thick and glossy, about 1 minute. Gently fold in prepared whipped cream until well combined.
• When cake is completely cool, carefully transfer it to a decorative serving platter. Spread frosting evenly over the top of the cake and serve.
• Store leftovers in the refrigerator.

ITALIAN LOVE CAKE

Steps:

• Prepare cake mix as directed on box.
• Pour batter into lightly greased 9 x 13 pan and set aside.
• Combine Ricotta, sugar, vanilla and eggs. Blend well.
• Pour on top of the chocolate cake mix. It's ok if it doesn't flow to the sides of the pan, as it will distribute evenly after baking.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 55-60 minutes.
• Blend the pudding mix and milk until thick, and then fold in the whipped topping.
• COMPLETELY COOL the cake. You can either spread the pudding mix on top and serve, or dollop some of the chocolate "mousse" on top of each piece served.
• **I used 1% milk, part skim ricotta and sugar free whipped topping and it was fantastic. You may use full fat everything and I'm sure it would be even more rich and lovely**.
• **Great thing for kids to make and watch bake in oven, as the chocolate cake will envelope the ricotta cheese mixture, after you cut it, the ricotta cheese will be in the center of the cake**.
