Marylou,
Well, if it's not on her site, and you can't tell me anything special about
it, there's no way I can find it out of all the baked eggplant recipes that
contain tomatoes and basil. All I can do is send you a couple of recipes
with those ingredients.

Chocolate Ricotta Cake (Chokladricottakaka)
Categories: Cakes
Yield: 1 Servings
1 3/4 c White Flour, All-Purpose
3 1/2 oz Cold Unsalted Butter, Diced
2 T Sugar
Filling:
2 1/4 lb Ricotta Cheese
1/2 c Sugar
2 T Wheat Flour, (White)
1 t Instant Coffee Powder
3 1/2 oz Chocolate, Chopped
4 Egg Yolks
1 1/2 oz Chocolate
1 t Vegetable Oil
Make a sweet shortbread dough: Put the flour in a large bowl and add
butter. Work with your fingertips to a fine, smooth mixture. Stir in
the sugar. Add 3 tbsp cold water and chop together with a knife to a
dough; add more water if necessary. Unmold on a lightly floured surface
and gather to a ball. Lightly grease a baking dish, diameter 10" and
with a removable bottom. Roll out the dough and dress the dish so that
the dough covers about 2/3 of the walls. Cover and put in the fridge
while you make the filling.
Mix ricotta, sugar, flour, and a pinch of salt to a smooth mixture.
Dissolve the instant coffee powder in 2 tsp hot water. Stir in the
coffee, chocolate, and egg yolks in the ricotta mixture and blend it
all well. Put the mixture in the cold shortbread crust and even out the
surface. Refrigerate for 30 minutes or until the batter is firm. Heat
the oven to 350 F.
Put the dish on a baking plate and bake for 1 hour or until the filling
has set. Turn off the heat and allow to cool with the oven door
slightly open - the cake may crackle a little, but it won't show when
it's cooled and decorated.
Decoration: Melt the extra chocolate and stir in the oil. Take a fork
and drizzle melted chocolate in thin bands over the surface, or pipe it
if you want a more "organized" decoration. Allow to cool completely
before cutting it in pieces and serving. Serves 8 to 10.
------------------------------
Chocolate Ricotta Cake
Cake:
1 3/4 cups flour
2 cups sugar
12 oz. unsweetened chocolate (12 squares), melted
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup buttermilk
2 eggs
2 teaspoons instant coffee
1 cup hot water
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3 teaspoons vanilla

1/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 pounds ricotta cheese
1/4 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup brandy
1 1/2 tablespoons grated orange peel
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Frosting:
1/3 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons Cocoa
1 cup heavy cream
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
To make the cake, mix in a mixing bowl the flour, sugar, baking soda, baking
powder, and instant coffee. Add eggs, buttermilk, water, oil, melted
chocolate and vanilla. Beat together until well blended. Pour into 2 circle
cake pans and bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until toothpick inserted
in center comes out clean. Cool completely before doing filling.
To make the filling, in a mixing bowl blend the sugar, ricotta, cream and
brandy until smooth. Stir in the orange peel and the chocolate chips. Spread
filling over one layer of the cake and top with remaining cake. Place in the
refrigerator for 2 hours before frosting the cake to let it firm up some.
To make frosting, combine al the ingredients into an electric mixer and beat
until stiff peaks develop. Frost the sides and top of cake. Refrigerate for
at least another 2 hours before serving. (Serves 8 )

Years ago I had a Jello recipe cookbooks that had 2 pie that were
just outstanding. The one that I had tried to look for is called
Sundae Lemon Pie and you use lemon pudding and pie filling with
extra lemon juice add, with milk, I believe butter-margarine, lemon
peel and I don't know if any other items or not. Also Jello had a
outstanding tasting Banana Cream Pie. In that pie you used banana
pudding and pie filling, with milk, used whole pkg. of Dream Whip
but you only mix 1 cup Dream Whip with 1 cup pudding pie filling
mixture and let it set in the refrig for an hour with wax paper on it.

Hello Ray,
The only recipe that I could find that was called "pineapple graham bars"
was cooked, so it couldn't be the one. The closest recipe that I found to
what you describe is the one below.
Phaed

1 c. graham cracker crumbs
2 tbsp. sugar
1/4 c. butter or margarine, melted

3 oz. pkg. cream cheese, softened
3 tbsp. sugar
1/4 tsp. grated orange peel
1 c. dairy sour cream
Preparation :
Mix crumbs, 2 tablespoons sugar and butter; press into bottom of
8x8x2 inch baking dish. Chill drained pineapple, reserving 1/2 cup
of syrup. Dissolve gelatin in the boiling water; add pineapple
syrup; cool. Blend cream cheese with 3 tablespoons sugar, vanilla
and orange peel. Stir 1/2 cup gelatin into drained pineapple,
vanilla and orange peel. Set aside. Gradually blend remaining
gelatin into cream cheese mixture; stir in sour cream. Pour into

I am so glad you are on the internet to help people such as myself.
Thank you again invance for find the recipe that I have lost. I
have 2 recipe today that one is a brownie recipe using ice cream
syrup in place of chocolate squares, cocoa, or chocolate chips.
Another one I believe it is out of Make It Now---Bake It Later by
Barbara Goodfellow. If I remember correctly it is 3 layers and I
am not sure what was used but it was outstanding. I believe it was
said to be a Canadan Brownie with 3 layers. I believe one layer
was a brownie texture, another one was I believe cream cheese layer
and I have forgotten what the 3 layer is but maybe a custard layer.
If you could find the 2 request that would be great.
Susie
Hi Susie,
Well, let's see what I've got for ya. Nothing that said "ice cream syrup", but if you mean Hershey's chocolate syrup,
there are two good ones below. I didn't find any recipes at all for a "Canadian brownie" or a recipe like that from
"Make It Now---Bake It Later", but there's a very good recipe below for a brownie that's a cream cheese layer between
two brownie layers. But, look at the first recipe below. It's a chocolate brownie layer topped by a creme de menthe
ice cream topping layer, topped by a chocolate chip layer! Can you resist it? It sounds delicious to me. Makes my mouth
water just reading the ingredients. And, look at the last recipe below. Graham cracker crumbs, coconut, vanilla pudding,
and chocolate! Wow!
