Ricotta Lemon Cake

Kinda chewy but zesty. I made a quarter batch of this only,in muffin pans, and covered it in lemon and sugar syrup. A bit dry otherwise.

500g flour
250g sugar
250g Ricotta
125ml lemon juice
3 egg yolks
3 whipped egg whites
15g baking powder
125g softened butter
powdered sugar
salt

Combine flour, baking powder and salt. Whip butter and sugar, add and whip egg yolks, and lemon juice. I had to add a heap more milk because it all got very stiff. Combine. 180 for about 40 mins. After that I recommend soaking in lemon syrup.
