description
This is a simplification of a Knam cake that struck me immediately, the flavor of the cocoa shortbread with the sweetness of sheep's ricotta is successful, the scent of thyme and honey are that extra touch that makes it exceptional!
preparation
step 1
Prepare the pastry. Leave the butter at room temperature for about an hour. When it is soft, work it with a planetary mixer or a whisk together with the sugar, vanilla and a pinch of salt. .
step 2
Add the egg and finally the flour together with the cocoa and yeast. Work quickly until it forms a soft dough. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least an hour.

Meanwhile prepare the filling. Separate the egg yolks from the whites and whip them into soft snow. Beat the eggs with the sugar, add the ricotta and mix well for a few minutes until it forms a smooth cream.

In a bowl mix the chocolate drops together with the flour so they won't come down during cooking. Then add flour and chocolate chips to the ricotta mixture, mix and finally add the whipped egg whites gently.
