Ricotta Pie (Old Italian Recipe)

Submitted by: Misty
This is an old Italian recipe for a pie with a sweet crust--just like from the old country. My in-laws are Italian and they say that this is the best pie. It is always requested for Christmas. Mini chocolate bits and lemon rind can be mixed into the batter.

Ricotta Cheese Pie II

Submitted by: Holly
This pie 's filling is made with evaporated milk so it 's very creamy, and the whipped egg whites folded in at the last minute make it light and airy. A bit of fresh lemon juice adds a refreshing taste to the finished pie. Decorate the top with sliced kiwi and strawberries. This recipe makes two 9-inch pies.
