INSTRUCTIONS

Cannoli Dough:
  • Mix dry ingredients and butter in robot coop until crumbly.
  • Add liquid by hand until dough forms.
  • Allow dough to cool for a few hours.
  • Pass through a pasta machine, making sure to flour both sides of the dough, until very thin (try setting number one, but could vary based on the machine).
  • Cut strips 5 1/2" tall by almost 4" wide and roll around the previously sprayed tube.
  • Fry at approx. 350°F (177°C) until light golden brown in color.
  • Save on airtight container for up to four days.
  • Cannoli must be filled "à la minute".

 

Buffalla Ricotta Filling:
  • Strain ricotta for a few hours to drain any excess liquid.
  • Mix all ingredients together to combine.
  • Place on a piping bag.

 

Nutella Fudge Sauce:
  • Bring to boil milk, cream, and sugar.
  • Pour the mixture over the chocolates and mix with an immersion blender.
  • Add Nutella and mix with an immersion blender.
  • When ready to use, warm slightly so it has a thick sauce consistency.
