Eggless Ricotta cheese cake – easy cheese cake with ricotta. My regular cheese cake has cream cheese as main ingredients. I love this variation too. My kids love the home made cheese cakes.
I have posted 3 of them Plain Cheese cake, Nuttella zebra cheese cake and Oreo cheese cake. When we were in Italy I tried a few cheese cake it tasted different from American ones and it was lighter. I kind of like both. After I searched for difference. Later I read that Italian one is using Ricotta and American one is using Sour cream. This year for my son’s birthday he wanted cheese cake again. So I decided to try it with Ricotta. Since I made it for his birthday I was crossing my fingers. I followed recipe from Joy baking. Original recipe is with egg. I made my version without egg also added melted white chocolate It came out pretty good
