How to make it

  • Make the cake:
  • Preheat the oven to 350F. Sift the flour and baking powder with a pinch of salt.
  • Beat the butter and sugar in a mixer until creamy; add the egg yolks one by one.
  • Fold in the flour.
  • Whip the egg whites with a pinch of salt until they hold soft peaks; fold them into the batter.
  • Butter and flour a 9" cake pan with a hole in the center; pour in the batter.
  • Bake 45 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted comes out clean.
  • Cool on a rack.
  • Make the filling: Combine the ricotta, mascarpone, sugar, and candied fruit.
  • Slice the cooled cake into three layers and spread with the filling; assemble the layers, dust with the confectioner's sugar, and decorate with the hazelnuts.
  • Refrigerate, then serve.
