| 3 lbs. whole milk fresh ricotta (low-fat won’t work here) |
|---|
| 1 cup mascarpone |
| 1 1/3 cups sugar |
| 6 large eggs |
| 2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
| ¼ cup smashed butter cookie of your choice |
| 1 teaspoon sugar |

Place mascarpone in a bowl and beat using a mixer until light. Add ricotta to bowl and beat at low speed until smooth. Beat eggs until smooth. Add 1 1/3 cups sugar and vanilla and continue to beat until mixture is very smooth. Pour mixture into the cake mold.
Add Balsamumm on top of mixture. Spread Balsamumm inside the mixture by inserting a small knife and making round moves. Place mold inside a roasting pan (to prevent spoiling) bake for 2h15.
