Baked cassatine: delicious and irresistible!

INGREDIENTS
510g (4 cups) of all-purpose flour
210g (1 cup) of butter
210g (1 cup) of sugar
1 lemon (zest)
2 eggs
1 egg yolk
Vanilla extract
A pinch of salt
300g (1 1/4 cups) of ricotta
150g (3/4 cup) of sugar
Chocolate chips
Dry biscuits
Powdered sugar

METHOD
1. In a mixing bowl add the flour and butter and mix with your fingers. Add the sugar, lemon (zest), eggs, egg yolk, vanilla essence, and salt, and mix well.
2. When the dough starts to form knead it with your hands to obtain a well-combined dough. Wrap it in cling film and transfer it to the fridge for 1 hour.
3. In a bowl add the ricotta and sugar and mix well. Transfer to the fridge for 6 hours, or overnight.
4. After time has elapsed mix the ricotta with the immersion blender to obtain the smooth mass. Add the chocolate chips and mix with a spatula.
5. Roll out the shortcrust pastry to a thickness of half a cm and with a round pastry cup of about 10 cm cut the shapes.
6. Line each slot of the muffin mold with the shortcrust pastry up to the edge. Put some crumbled biscuits on the bottom and add two tablespoons of ricotta. Finally, add some crumbled biscuits.
7. From the rest of the shortcrust pastry, cut out other disks of the right size to cover the causative. Seal the edges and press with your fingers to close them well.
8. Transfer the castings to the oven and bake at 180°C/360°F for 40 minutes.
9. Remove from the oven, let it cool completely, and remove the small baked cassata from the mold. Decorate with powdered sugar and serve.
