RICOTTA FILO CAKE
Give the cheesecake time to cool down before you slice it. The pastry will shatter, which is rather lovely, offering wisps of crispness with the soft, creamy cheesecake. This is lighter and less rich than most.

Steps:
- Set the oven at 350°F/180°C/Gas 4. Melt the butter in a small pan. Place a baking sheet in the oven. Line the tart tin with a double sheet of filo, letting it fall over the edges. Brush with some of the butter, then continue with all the sheets of filo, letting the pastry overhang the tin where necessary and generously brushing them with butter as you go.
- Put the ricotta, eggs, egg yolks, honey, cinnamon and granulated sugar into the bowl of a food mixer and combine to a smooth cream. Fold in the candied peel, raisins, finely grated citrus zest, flour, a capful of vanilla extract and, lastly, the ground almonds. Using a rubber spatula, scrape the mixture into the lined tin, smooth flat, then gently fold the overhanging pastry sheets to the middle, curling them over as you go to make loose rosettes of pastry. Bake for forty to fifty minutes, until the pastry is crisp and the filling lightly firm to the touch.
- To finish:
- Remove the cheesecake from the oven. Melt the honey in a small saucepan, stir in the candied peel, then spoon over the pastry. Dust with icing sugar and leave to cool before slicing.

Tips:
- Thaw phyllo dough properly: Before using the phyllo dough, thaw it in the refrigerator overnight or at room temperature for at least an hour. This will prevent the dough from cracking or breaking when you are working with it.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the phyllo dough: A sharp knife will help you make clean, precise cuts in the dough. This will help the dough to lay flat and evenly when you are assembling the pastries.
- Brush the phyllo dough with melted butter: Brushing the dough with melted butter will help to prevent it from drying out and becoming brittle. It will also help the layers of dough to adhere to each other.
- Bake the pastries in a preheated oven: This will help the pastries to cook evenly and prevent them from becoming soggy.
- Let the pastries cool before serving: This will allow the filling to set and the pastries to firm up.
