A delicious Italian recipe that everyone will love!

INGREDIENTS

For the dough:
90g (1/2 cup) of sugar
1 egg yolk
1 egg
A pinch of salt
Lemon (zest)
70g (1/4 cup) of vegetable oil
290g (2 1/4 cups) of flour
5g (1 tsp) of baking powder

For the filling:
500g (2 cups) of ricotta cheese
160g (1 1/2 cups) of powdered sugar
Lemon (zest)
100g (3/4 cup) of chocolate chips
Chocolate chips

For decoration:

Powdered sugar

METHOD

In a bowl add the sugar, a pinch of salt, lemon zest, the oil, the whole egg, and the yolk. Stir with a fork or spoon, gradually add the flour with the yeast until the dough begins to form.
In another bowl add the ricotta cheese, powdered sugar, lemon (zest), and mix with the mixer until is well combined. At the end add the chocolate chips and mix them all with a spatula.
Roll out 2/3 of the pastry on the lightly floured surface to a thickness of about 5 mm. Cover the bottom and sides of the mold (mold size - 20cm).
Fill with the ricotta cream and level evenly with the back of a spatula. Add the chocolate chips on top.
Roll out the remaining shortcrust pastry to a thickness of about 5 mm and make a circumference to cover the tart. Prick the surface a little with a knife to let the steam out.
Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C/356°F for 20 minutes and decorate with powdered sugar.
