Place one tablespoon of powdered sugar in a fine mesh strainer. The sieve should just cover the cake. Apply two teaspoons of little chocolate chips.

Chocolate Chip Ricotta Cake stays moist even after being made ahead of time. Up to a week ahead of time, just put it in the fridge until you're ready to serve.
