With Christmas being a few days away, the Christmas lunch menu is probably almost finalised. However, with this impressive and easy-to-make cake, we have just the perfect addition to your dessert menu this year. It will leave your guests asking for more than just a single serving.

We are quite certain that your family enjoys your trifle and malva pudding that you make every Christmas, and while those can be family favourites, how about you step out of your comfort zone and surprise them with something new?

Giving us the perfect teaser of what this cake tastes like is Taste – an Australian food site – stating, “Made from fresh ricotta, this baked lemon dessert cake has a similar texture to cheesecake.” The source also mentions that this dessert is best served with “lemon curd and vanilla ice-cream.”

This zesty cake is easy to make, does not require much and serves a large number of people.

While it may be the first time that many hear of this dessert cake, the recipe is quite direct and easy to follow. Showing us how she makes this cake within the comfort of her own home is Onezwa Mbola , owner of emandulo which is a local company that produces homegrown and handmade condiments and seasonings.

Sharing the simplicity of this cake, she stated, “This homemade ricotta cake is basically umthubi in cake form and I’ve been obsessed with it since the first time I had it ???.”
