Ingredients
- Crust:
- 3 cups flour
- 1/2 pound cold, unsalted butter
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1/4 cup baking powder
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- 1/8 cup milk
- Filling:
- 2 pounds ricotta cheese, drained
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1-1/2 cups sugar
- 10 eggs
- 2 tsp. vanilla
Directions
- For the Crust:
- Cut butter into dry ingredients. Add eggs, vanilla and milk. Blend well. Turn out on floured surface and knead 1-2 minutes. (The dough should be very cold before rolling out, so you may want to wrap in plastic and refrigerate for about 20 minutes.)
- Cut dough in half and roll out. Makes 2-9" pies. Use extra dough to create a lattice top.
- Filling:
- In a mixer, cream ricotta. Next add salt, sugar and vanilla. Add eggs one at a time and mix well. Pour into pie crusts and place lattice work on top. Bake at 350 for 40-45 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean.
