How to cook it

6 steps

Step 1
Place the ricotta cheese in a fine-mesh sieve lined with cheesecloth and let drain in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to remove excess liquid.
Step 2
In a bowl, beat the drained ricotta with the powdered sugar and cinnamon until smooth and creamy.
Step 3
Fold in the mini chocolate chips.
Step 4
Transfer the filling to a piping bag or a zip-top bag with the corner snipped off.
Step 5
Pipe the filling into both ends of each cannoli shell just before serving so the shells stay crisp.
Step 6
Dust the filled cannoli with a little extra powdered sugar and serve immediately.
