1 1/2 lbs. ricotta cheese
1 1/2 c. sugar
1/4 c. semisweet chocolate pieces
1/8 tsp. pure powdered vanilla
1/8 tsp. cinnamon
Cannoli shells, buy ready made from Italian pastry shop.
The better quality of ingredients the better these are! I always use good chocolate, cinnamon and vanilla.
In large bowl, with portable electric mixer, beat cheese for one minute. Beat in sugar, 1 minute. Mix in chocolate, vanilla and cinnamon. Refrigerate, covered, 2 hours. With teaspoon, fill shells with ricotta and serve. Approximately 10 cannoli shells.
I have received more email asking for this recipe & it has surprised me! I didn’t even know what a cannoli was until I married into my Italian family. Enjoy!
