Ingredients
- butter for greasing
- 9 eggs
- 1 1/2 cups white sugar
- 2 pounds ricotta cheese
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 1 cup cooked white rice
- 1 (15 ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the optimal temperature for this dish, which is 325 degrees Fahrenheit or 165 degrees Celsius.
2
Next, take a 9x13-inch baking pan and generously apply butter to its surface; set it aside for the time being.
3
In a massive mixing bowl, whisk eggs until they become light and fluffy. Gradually add sugar to the eggs, ensuring a thorough mixture.
4
Now, incorporate cheese and vanilla extract into the egg-sugar mixture until it reaches a smooth, velvety consistency.
5
Add heavy cream to the bowl and mix until well combined.
6
Then, gently fold in cooked rice and crushed pineapple into the mixture.
7
Pour the entire mixture into a 9x13-inch baking pan that has been prepared earlier.
8
Bake the dish in your preheated oven until the top is golden brown and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, allowing for at least 1 hour of cooking time.
9
Once done, refrigerate the dish until it has thoroughly cooled down.
