Steps for preparing the ricotta and chocolate crumble
Prepare the dough. In a bowl, work the flour with the butter cut into pieces. Add the sugar, eggs, salt, and flour until you get large crumbs.
Prepare the filling by mixing the ricotta with the sugar. Break the chocolate into pieces and add it to the ricotta. Line a springform pan with parchment paper and use 3/4 of the crumbs to form the base and sides of the crumble. Fill with the ricotta and chocolate. Cover with the remaining crumbs.
Preheat the oven to 356°F. Bake for 50 minutes to an hour. Let cool completely before removing from the pan and serving.
