I've made this a couple of times already. It's a fabulous recipe: it's easy, it looks impressive, tastes great (not too sweet), and keeps well for a few days. I've also made it using chocolate cake mix and actually like it better! The chocolate one comes out with a dark layer and a white layer, and another very thin dark layer. Looks cool. My family ate it plain, but I dusted it with powdered sugar for guests.

Wonderful desert served cold. Tried it straight out of the oven and had no flavor to me. But the next day, after refriderating over night, it was awesome.

Very good! I followed the recipe exactly and it came out perfect. My mother has been making a similar version of this recipe for the past few years and she liked this one better.

very good cake, even my husband and his friend that were reluctant to try it loved it. i tried it with the yellow and devils food cake mix. ppl said it tasted like a creamy brownie. o and at first when it came out of the oven i tried it, i thot the ricotta mix a lil bland, but after it cooled it was more flavorful, so let it set for a lil while and you'll like it even more!

This cake was just ok. It didn't have much flavor at all and the ricotta just added a creaminess to the bottom of it and that's it. If I make this again I will definitely add a lot of my own ideas to make this better.

This is a delicious cake and exactly what I was looking for! It is definitely different than just any old cake. I used my springform cheesecake tin lined with parchment paper. Some changes I made: I added the zest of one orange and chopped, toasted, walnuts to the ricotta mixture. When the cake was done, I flipped the cake so that the ricotta ended up on top. I topped it with a mixture that included 4 tbsp of apricot jam and 2 tbsp of brandy. Instead of walnuts you could also add toasted, chopped, or shaved almonds. This is a perfect dessert if you don't want something too sweet. It's just too good!

Exceptional and made with a chocolate cake mix it is devine !. When I make this cake I use instant pudding prepared with directions on the box and add about 1 cup of cool whip..Fold in the cool whip after the pudding sets a little and then use it for the icing-WOW.. can't beat it- Chocolate for the Chocolate ricotta cake and vanilla for this one..

I made this cake exactly as stated in the recipe and it turned out perfect. However, for me, the ricotta is just a little too grainy even tho I beat it in the mixer for a while. It was moist and kept well in the fridge. I did make a cream cheese icing for it and that helped.

I made it with "David's Yellow Cake" from this site, instead of a cake mix. Since the yellow cake recipe calls for 8 egg yolks, I mixed the ricotta with 8 egg whites instead of 4 eggs. It came out great.

So good. Not overly sweet as some frosted cakes can be. I made it with fat free ricotta. Very satisfying.

The bottom half is really good. It is so moist, but the top just tastes like dry white cake. If there was a way for the ricotta cheese to stay even within the cake than it would be a 5 star cake. And its expensive to make for the ricotta cheese. Just eat the bottom half and its worth it.

Absolutly great!!!! I made this as a birthday cake and it was a huge hit. The ricotta bakes into a creamy layer that goes so well with the cake, like a baked in icing.
