1 (3 LB.) can Ricotta Cheese
1/2 pint heavy cream
2 cups sugar
2 tablespoon flour
2 tablespoon vanilla
1 dozen eggs

Mix all ingredients thoroughly, except heavy cream. Then fold in heavy
cream. Pour into spring form pan. Bake at 325 degrees for 2 1/2 hours.

If desired, chocolate chips or fruits may be added.

(My Italian side of the family prefers this with chocolate chips added)

My husband (who is Italian) and I have made this recipe for the last few Easter's and it has passed my mother-in-laws approval (she's 90 years old).

Sicilian Easter Cheese Pie

1 pkg. Pillsbury Pie Crust
2 lbs. Ricotta Cheese
6 egg yolks
6 egg whites
1 c. sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
1 small jar cherries, drained & chopped or a can of pineapple - drained

In a large mixing bowl, beat ricotta, egg yolks, sugar & vanilla for 10 min. Add crushed pineapple or cherries and beat for 5 min. In a separate bowl, beat egg whites till stiff. Fold in stiffly beaten egg whites gently. Spray a 9 x 12 baking dish lightly with Pam. Take the round, single pie crust and roll out to about as square as you can get it to fit into the square bak. dish Add the egg mixture and cut the second pie crust into strips. Place strips gently on top of egg mixture and brush strips with a beaten egg white/water mixture.

Bake 400 for 30-40 min. Serve when cooled and keep refrigerated. Happy Easter!
