Made this cake for Easter and it was a hit. Very impressed with presentation and a nice blend of textures and flavors. Will definitely make again but would substitute either a real whipped cream topping or possibly a fruit topping. Didn't like the 'chocolate mousse' topping. Otherwise loved it: simple and delicious.

The cake was good, but dry. Baking it for 90 minutes was way too long.

I made this as a two layer lemon cake, which turned out awesome, except there was two much batter for two pans! I made it again as a chocolate 3 layer for a bake sale, and got so many complimens on it; pretty presentation and scrumptious taste!

i needed a recipe to use up some ricotta i had but i must admit that i was afraid of making this one. yet this was actually a pleasant surprise! the boys and the hubby ate it all up and we're not big fans of sweets (maybe that's why we liked it) i did make some changes to the frosting: i whipped the cream myself and added more chocolate. next time i will make the chocolate cake from scratch instead of using a boxed mix.

75 minutes is way too long to bake this cake. I took mine out before that and it was already done.

If using "pyrex" glass pan,cake & cheese mix will fill pan when cooked leaving no room for topping. If u make this, do NOT eat it warm as it's at its worst then. Much better cold. Also, the ricotta mix needs more sugar. It's gone from my recipe box.

Very easy to make and delicious too! Let it set overnight and added the whipped topping the next day.

For some reason the cheese layer didn't sink to the bottom on mine. Got lot of compliements, still had a lot leftover. I and many others loved the whipped topping.

I recently made this cake for my daycare staff. We had a celebration for two year anniversary! It was a HUGE hit and my girls are fussy!! I changed absolutely nothing! However I should have changed how much I made because everyone wanted to eat some AND take some home with them! Thanks for the recipe!
