Instructions
- Preparation of ingredients:

- In a large bowl, sift the flour, cocoa and baking powder. Add a pinch of salt and mix well.
- In another bowl, beat the eggs and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the ricotta to the egg and sugar mixture, mixing until you obtain a smooth cream.
- Add the melted butter (or seed oil) and the milk, continuing to mix.
- Gradually combine the dry ingredients into the liquid mixture, mixing gently to avoid lumps.
- If you like, add dark chocolate chips to the mixture.
- Cooking:
- Pour the mixture into the prepared cake pan, leveling the surface with a spatula.
