Instructions for cake with coffee, cardamom and ricotta

• For this recipe all the ingredients must be at room temperature. This includes ricotta cheese. Having all the ingredients at room temperature avoid having the cold batter which then in the oven creates a hump in the center of the cake.
• Divide the whites from the yolks into two different bowls. Whip the whites until stiff and set aside.
• Add white sugar to the egg yolks and whip with the electric mixer. Now add soft butter and whip until the three ingredients are blended. Add ricotta, cardamom powder and ground coffee powder. Whip again to mix everything.
  
• Now add the whipped egg whites and gently incorporate them with movements from the bottom to the top using a spoon or a silicone spatula.
  
• Sift all-purpose flour with the baking powder and a pinch of salt. Combine dry and wet ingredients and mix with a whisk until the batter is without visible traces of flour.

Soft coffee cake – baking time

• If you use the classic pan, line the bottom of a 20 cm wide round pan with a circle of baking paper. Grease the edge of the pan with some butter and dust it with flour.
• If you use the silicone mould, brush it with some vegetable oil. Pour the batter into the mold and bake in a preheated static oven at 180 ° C for about 50 – 55 minutes. Bake until the toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.
  
• Remove from the oven and let it cool for 15 minutes before turning the mould upside down and removing the cake. Let it cool completely before serving.
