Ricotta Pie

I still remember the first time I tasted Ricotta Pie. I was at one of my best friend’s house studying, and her mother, Tia Telma, a Paulista of Italian descent, brought us this fresh and hot out-of-the-oven deliciousness as our afternoon snack. It was so good that this pie was forever marked in my mind. Recently, in a fit of nostalgia and sweet cravings, I asked Tia Thelma for this recipe, but she didn’t even remember she used to make this pie for us!  Haha!

After endless search on the internet, I found a recipe that didn’t really look the same to Tia Thelma’s but luckily for me it tastes exactly the same! It’s VERY easy and it could be a great idea for a quick dinner dessert or tea party sweet. Enjoy!
