Almond Ricotta Cake
  1. Preheat oven to 325F. Grease or spray a 9" spring form pan. Dust with flour or almond flour.

  2. Cream the sugar, butter, salt, and extracts until very light and fluffy, about 5 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary.

  3. Beat in the egg yolks, one at a time, scraping down the bowl as necessary.

  4. Add the ricotta cheese and continue beating for another minute or so until very smooth. Blend in the almond flour.

  5. Beat the egg whites until they form stiff peaks.

  6. Gently fold the egg whites into the batter in two stages.

  7. Spread the batter into your prepared springform pan and smooth out the top evenly.

  8. Sprinkle sliced almond evenly over the top.

  9. Bake in your preheated oven for 50-55 minutes. The cake will be puffed, golden, and not jiggly in the center.

  10. Let the cake cool for 10 minutes, then release the sides of the pan. Let the cake cool 15 minutes before dusting with confectioner's sugar.
