This is the white chocolate recipe I promised. The original recipe called for all-purpose flour which I changed to cake flour. It called for 1/2 of the white chocolate to be melted, the rest sprinkled in layers of the batter. I melted and added all of it. It also called for sour cream which I changed to ricotta cheese. The batter is thicker with the cheese but the flavor is wonderful!


What an interesting recipe for a pound cake. I bet the ricotta does add a wonderful flavor as well as keep the cake nice and moist. Huge fan of white chocolate, can't wait to try this!


This is a must try for me...can I still use the all purpose flour? And sounds thick enough to use a tube pan, too...thanks for a great post!

You can use the all purpose flour and it is perfect for a tube pan. Just watch the size of your pan and make sure you don't over fill. I did with my first one and ended up with a real mess in my oven. Just to be safe, put something under the pan. The ricotta cheese does give it added flavor and make it moist. Also, if you go to my website where this is also posted, you will find change suggestions for flavors. http://www.marthaskitchenkorner.com There I suggest milk chocolate, coconut, lemon, etc.
