Ricotta cheese

1 box yellow cake mix
3 pounds ricotta cheese
8 eggs
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 Tablespoons vanilla
1 Tablespoon Lemon extract
Cinnamon
Sugar
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a large oblong baking or roasting pan (12x18 or so), or divide recipe and bake in two 9x12 pans.

Follow directions on cake box and prepare cake. Pour batter into pan, and smooth out. Mix the ricotta, eggs, sugar and extracts, and pour into center of batter in pan. Do Not Spread! (Cheese mix blends in by itself.)

Place cake in oven for 40 minutes, remove from oven and sprinkle with a mix of cinnamon and sugar, place on a higher rack in the oven and bake for another 20 to 25 minutes. Cool for 1/2 hour. Cover with foil, and refrigerate for 5 hours before serving. Cut into squares.
