Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Whip together butter and ricotta cheese. This recipe calls for 1 1/2 cups. I use an entire 15 oz container.
  3. Add sugar and blend.
  4. Beat in one egg at a time until combined.
  5. Contine adding extract, zest, and juice. You may scale back the amount of zest. I love the flavor punch, so I use the zest of two lemons.
  6. In a separate bowl whisk together dry ingredients.
  7. Combine wet with dry turning mixture into a greased 9x5x3 loaf pan.
  8. Bake about 50 minutes. Because of the ricotta cake may have a slight wiggle.
  9. If you wish, stem and slice strawberries. Add a few tablespoons of sugar and the juice of the remaining lemon. This is a great topping for the cake.
