Categories     Dessert

Time 1h20m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 lbs ricotta cheese
1 cup sugar
4 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 (3 3/4 ounce) box instant chocolate pudding mix
1 cup milk
8 ounces non-dairy whipped topping, thawed (such as CoolWhip)
1 box fudge marble cake mix

  • Spoon over unbaked cake.
  • Bake cake for 1 hour.
  • Cool.
  • Mix instant pudding with milk; fold in whipped topping.

Tips:

  • Use room temperature ingredients: This will help ensure that the cake batter emulsifies properly, resulting in a smooth and consistent texture.
  • Do not overmix the batter: Overmixed batter can result in a tough, dense cake. Mix the batter only until the ingredients are well combined.
  • Bake the cake in a preheated oven: This will help ensure that the cake rises evenly and does not sink in the middle.
  • Do not open the oven door during baking: This can cause the cake to fall.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting: This will help prevent the frosting from melting.
