Total Time 80 minutes

Prep Time 20 minutes

Cook Time 60 minutes

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 cups flour
1 tablespoon bitter cocoa powder
4 tablespoon confectioners sugar
4 tablespoon lard (optional)
1 pinch salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon powder
1 teaspoon instant coffee
1 egg
1 oz white wine vinegar
1 oz Marsala wine
3 cups ricotta cheese
1/2 cup dark chocolate drops
1.5 cups sugar
24 Candied cherries
Powdered sugar (as required)
1 egg white
1 l lard

Steps:

  • Before you begin to prepare the cannoli shells (called "scorcie"), put the cheese to drain in a colander placed in a bowl, then store it in the fridge.
  • Put in a large mixing bowl the flour, salt, cinnamon, powdered coffee, cocoa and sift the confectioners sugar.
  • Add the lard, egg, and then the vinegar mixed with Marsala wine; the latter liquids should be added slowly, kneading the composition every time, as depending on how much the flour absorbs, you might not need to add the entire Marsala and vinegar mix. Keep in mind that the dough should be soft and elastic, but firm.
  • Knead the mixture for 5 minutes on a work surface, until it is elastic, smooth and homogeneous, then wrap it in plastic and leave it to rest for at least an hour in the refrigerator.
  • Now to prepare the cannoli cream for the topping, you will need take the well-drained ricotta cheese and place it inside a bowl where you add sugar.
  • Gently stir the ingredients without applying too much pressure, then cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place in refrigerator for at least an hour.
  • After the indicated time, take a very fine mesh sieve, place it on a bowl and with the help of a spatula, crush the ricotta and sugar down and press on it, so that what comes out through the sieve is a very fine cream.
  • Once the composition has the right density, add the chocolate chips (or, if you prefer, candied pumpkin cubes). Mix and place the cream cheese in the refrigerator, inside a container with a lid.
  • Take the dough for the cannoli shells and place it on the table. Use a rolling pin to create a thin 1-2 mm pastry. Use round pastry rings to create at least 24 pieces.
  • Stretch the 24 circles, then roll them around cannoli molds (if you have metal cylinders that works too), brushing the ends with the whites before stacking them.
  • Heat the lard (or oil) in a saucepan not too big, until you get to 170-180 °C (338-356 F) and then fry all the cannoli shells. Place them afterwards on a couple of sheets of absorbent paper, to get rid of the extra oil, and let them cool completely before removing the metal cylinders.
  • Once they cooled, fill the cannoli shells with the cannoli cream that you will put in a pastry bag, using a smooth and wide nozzle.
  • Complete the process by cutting the candied cherry in two and place one half at each end. Instead of cherries, you can use orange peel or chopped pistachios.
  • Top it with a generous sprinkling of powdered sugar and serve.

  • Drain ricotta by placing it a fine mesh strainer set over a large bowl. Let drain in refrigerator for at least an hour and up to overnight.  In a large bowl using a hand mixer, beat double cream and half of the icing sugar until stiff peaks form.  In another large bowl, combine ricotta, mascarpone, remaining icing sugar, vanilla, orange zest, and salt. Fold in whipped cream. Refrigerate until ready to fill cannoli, at least 1 hour. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Cut butter into flour mixture with your hands or pastry cutter until pea-sized. Add wine and egg and mix until a dough forms. Knead a few times in bowl to help dough come together. Pat into a flat circle, then wrap in cling film and refrigerate at least 1 hour and up to overnight.  On a lightly floured surface, divide dough in half. Roll one half out to just under half a centimetre thick. Use a 10cm circle cookie cutter to cut out dough. Repeat with remaining dough. Re-roll scraps to cut a few extra circles.  Wrap dough around cannoli moulds and brush egg whites where the dough will meet to seal together.  In a large pot over medium heat, heat about 5cm of oil to 180°C. Working in batches, add cannoli moulds to oil and fry, turning occasionally, until golden, about 4 minutes. Remove from oil and place on a paper towel-lined plate. Let cool slightly.  When cool enough to handle or using a kitchen towel to hold, gently remove twist shells off of moulds.  Place filling in a pastry bag fitted with an open star tip. Pipe filling into shells, then dip ends in mini chocolate chips.  Working in batches, place moulds in basket of air fryer and cook at 170°C for 12 minutes, or until golden.  When cool enough to handle or using a kitchen towel to hold, gently remove twist shells off of moulds.  Place filling in a pastry bag fitted with an open star tip. Pipe filling into shells, then dip ends in mini chocolate chips.

CANNOLI SHELLS AND RICOTTA CREAM FILLING RECIPE - FOOD.COM
Giovanna, our good friend, makes wonderful cannoli shells and ricotta cream-love friends like her! Her family owned Italian restaurants for over 40 years in the Chicago area. She stores the shells in a plastic air tight container at room temperature for 2 months and freezes the filling she is not using immediately and defrosts it in the refrigerator later. As she would say mangiare, mangiare---eat, eat! (I will attempt to post some photos in the correct sequence http://www.recipezaar.com/bb/viewtopic.zsp?t=259809)

I love a cup of seriously strong coffee and a cannoli from an Italian bakery on Bleeker Street in Manhattan. When I am making these at home, I am holding them up to the standard of those memories. The dessert really comes together in two parts: make the shell, thin and crispy and then make a filling with serious flavor.

  • To fill the cannolis: Just before serving, use a pastry bag without a tip to pipe the ricotta into the cannoli molds. Fill the cannoli shells from both ends so the cream runs through the whole shell. Dust with powdered sugar. Powdered sugar gives that little extra sweetness and added texture to the exterior. It also makes me feel like I have a professional bakery touch in my own home. Serve immediately.
