Equipment

  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Mixer and bowl
  • Spatula

Ingredients

  • 1 8 oz block of cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup ricotta
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup mini chocolate chips divided
  • 1 9-inch graham cracker pie crust

Instructions

  • In the bowl of your mixer, whip the cream cheese and powdered sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy. Reduce the speed to low and slowly mix in the heavy cream. Gradually increase the speed to high and whip until medium peaks form. Stir in the ricotta, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Continue mixing until well incorporated. Mix in half a cup of the mini chocolate chips.
  • Pour the filling into your pie crust and top with the remaining mini chocolate chips.
  • Refrigerate for 4 to 6 hours until the filling is set.

Notes

• Allow at least 4 hours for the pie to chill before serving.
• Make it a day ahead for an easy entertaining dessert.
• If your ricotta seems watery, strain it before mixing for the creamiest filling.
• Let the cream cheese soften to room temperature before mixing.
• Garnish with extra mini chocolate chips or chopped pistachios just before serving.
