Cooking

step-0
To prepare dough. Sift the flour, add half a Cup of sugar, the baking powder, the grated zest of lemon or orange and almond flour.
step-1
Add eggs and soft butter. Quickly knead the dough.
step-2
Shape it into a ball, wrap in clingfilm and put in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
step-3
Ricotta mixed with sugar (1/2 Cup) until dissolved grains. Original sugar a little more - and in the filling and in the dough. But it seemed to me that this amount will be enough. After all, candied fruit and chocolate also give a large percentage of sweets.
step-4
Grind the almonds, chop into small pieces chocolate. Mix ricotta, nuts, chocolate and candied fruit. Candied better to take citrus. I have added dried cherries.
step-5
Dough divided into two parts - bigger and smaller. From a larger roll out to a thickness of 0.5 cm and cover the form, greased and sprinkled with flour, bottom and sides.
step-6
Put the stuffing.
step-7
Roll out remaining dough into the reservoir and tightly cover the top of the pie. Connect the edges.
step-8
The cassatt bake in a preheated oven at 180-200 degrees until Golden brown. The finished cake can be sprinkled with powdered sugar and cocoa.
