How to Prepare Ricotta and Chocolate Rolled Cookies
First, prepare the filling. In a bowl, combine ricotta, sugar, lemon zest, and chocolate shavings. Mix with a spatula until you get a smooth mixture. Set aside for a moment.
In a bowl, combine eggs and sugar. Mix with a fork.
Add lemon juice and oil. Mix.
Finally, add flour and baking powder. Start mixing with the fork, then when it gets difficult, continue kneading by hand until you get a compact and homogeneous dough.
Roll out the dough with a rolling pin on a lightly floured piece of parchment paper. You should form a not too thin rectangle.
Spread the ricotta on the dough rectangle using a spoon. Roll up gently.
Place the roll on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and press it slightly with your hands.
Bake in a hot, static oven at 356°F and let it cook for about 35 minutes. Make sure to check the cooking times based on your oven.
Remove from the oven, let it cool slightly, then cut the cookies.
If desired, sprinkle with powdered sugar and enjoy.
