This is a "no bake" variation of a very rich, traditional Italian dessert. Since it uses store bought sponge cake as a base, it is very easy to put together. Prep time does not include overnight refrigeration time.

- Turn ricotta mixture into lined mold.
- Cover the top with remaining cake slices.
- Refrigerate overnight, or place in freezer for several hours.
- To serve: If you used a pan or bowl as a mold, invert pan/bowl onto a serving platter, and remove mold.
- Sprinkle (lightly sift) confectioner's sugar over cake.
