Ingredients

  • 1 9 inch Graham Cracker Crust
  • 1 1/2 cups Ricotta Cheese
  • 1 cup Powdered Sugar plus 1 tablespoon for garnish
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1 tsp Orange Zest
  • 1/4 tsp Ground Cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup Mini Chocolate Chips
  • 1 cup Whipped Cream
  • Chocolate Curls for garnish

Instructions

  • Prepare the Ricotta. Drain the ricotta overnight if possible (or at least for a few hours) to remove excess moisture. Wrap it in cheesecloth or paper towels and place it in a colander over a bowl.
  • Make the Filling. In a large bowl, beat the drained ricotta and mascarpone until smooth and fluffy. Add powdered sugar, vanilla, orange zest, and cinnamon. Fold in the mini chocolate chips.
  • Assemble the Pie. Spread the creamy filling into your graham cracker crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
  • Chill. Cover and refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or overnight. The longer it chills, the better it sets.
  • Garnish and Serve. Right before serving, top with whipped cream, a dusting of powdered sugar, and extra chocolate chips if desired.
