List of Ingredients




Shells:
1 3/4 cups flour
1 tablespoon sugar
pinch of salt
2 tablespoons of butter, melted
3/4 cup Marsala wine
egg white
2 quarts vegetable oil for frying

Filling:
1 15oz container of Ricotta cheese
1/2 cup of sugar
1 teaspoon of vanilla
1/4 cup of mini chocolate chips
confectioners sugar for dusting



Recipe



1. In a mixing bowl combine flour, sugar and salt. Add the melted butter and marsala wine. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until well mixed.

2. Wrap dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours.

3. Roll out the dough until very thin. Using a cookie cutter or the rim of a glass, cut dough into 4-inch rounds, and roll again until very thin.

4. Roll each piece tightly around a cannoli tube. Seal with egg white.

5. Heat the vegetable oil in a deep 3.5 quart pot to 350 degrees.

6. Place the dough forms in the hot oil and fry until golden brown, 2-3 minutes. Place on paper towels to drain. Cool and gently twist tube to remove shell from form.

7. In a large mixing bowl whip sugar, vanilla and ricotta together until smooth, then stir in the chocolate chips.

8. Spoon filling into a pastry bag with a large round tip. Pipe the ricotta cream into the pastry shells, dust with confectioners sugar and serve immediately.
