The graham cracker crust on this heavenly pie is sweetened with honey. The filling is made with ricotta cheese, lots of eggs, and more honey. It 's studded with slivered lemon peel and almonds and topped with pumpkin seeds. Then this treat is baked, chilled and served to raves. 

Ricotta Pie (Old Italian Recipe)

Submitted by: Misty
This is an old Italian recipe for a pie with a sweet crust--just like from the old country. My in-laws are Italian and they say that this is the best pie. It is always requested for Christmas. Mini chocolate bits and lemon rind can be mixed into the batter.

This recipe makes two sweet rice pies, a dessert traditionally served on Easter by many Italian families. But it's not unknown for the pie to be made year-round as well.

This pie has a lovely, creamy texture, and a refreshing taste from lemon juice and lemon rind stirred in. The filling is poured into a homemade crust, baked for an hour until set, and served with sweetened, sliced strawberries.

Give a traditional custard pie a holiday twist by using eggnog in place of milk. Add a splash of brandy or brandy extract if you wish to extend the holiday cheer. 

Ricotta Pie

Lots of ricotta, eggs and sugar, and the perfect amount of chocolate go into this elegant pie. So, the filling is thick, rich, sweet and speckled with chocolate. It 's poured into a homemade crust, topped with a beautiful pastry lattice and baked until set.
