Italian Love Cake (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

01 - 1 box (3.9 ounces) instant chocolate pudding mix
02 - 1 container (8 ounces) whipped topping
03 - 2 pounds ricotta cheese
04 - 4 large eggs
05 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (use pure if you can)

07 - 1 box (15.25 ounces) chocolate cake mix
08 - Follow the instructions on the cake mix package for its required ingredients
09 - 1 1/2 cups chilled milk

# Instructions:

01 - Turn on the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch pan to stop sticking.
02 - Whip up the chocolate cake mix according to the box. Pour it evenly into the greased pan.
03 - Use a fresh bowl to mix together ricotta, eggs, sugar, and vanilla. Once smooth, add this over the cake batter lightly.
04 - Let the cake bake for about 50 to 60 minutes. It's ready when a toothpick pushed in comes out clean. Let it completely cool when done.
05 - Stir the pudding mix and cold milk until it thickens up. Gently mix in the whipped topping.
06 - Spread the pudding and topping mix across your cake once it's cooled. Let it chill for at least 4 hours or leave it overnight for the best results.
07 - Cut slices and dig into this beautiful dessert!
