Italian Love Cake

How To Make Italian Love Cake

Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan.

Prepare Cake Batter:
Prepare the chocolate cake batter according to package instructions. Pour it evenly into the prepared baking pan.

Make Ricotta Filling:
In a large bowl, beat together the ricotta cheese, eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Carefully spoon the ricotta mixture over the cake batter in the pan. Do not mix — it will naturally form layers as it bakes.

Bake:
Bake for about 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely.

Prepare Topping:
In a bowl, whisk together the instant chocolate pudding mix and cold milk until thickened.
Fold in the Cool Whip or whipped topping until smooth and creamy.

Top the Cake:
Spread the pudding mixture evenly over the cooled cake.

Chill:
Refrigerate the cake for at least 4 hours — overnight is best for full flavor and texture.
