Chocolate Sauce

Method

Preparation

1

Make the Cannoli Shells

In a bowl, mix flour, sugar, cinnamon, and salt. In another bowl, whisk together the egg, melted butter, and white wine. Combine wet and dry ingredients and knead until smooth. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.

2

Roll and Fry the Shells

Roll out the dough thinly and cut into circles. Wrap around cannoli forms and fry in hot oil until golden brown. Drain on paper towels and let cool.

3

Prepare the Ricotta Filling

In a bowl, combine ricotta cheese, powdered sugar, chocolate chips, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and refrigerate until ready to use.

4

Make the Chocolate Sauce

In a saucepan, heat the heavy cream until simmering. Remove from heat and add chocolate chips, stirring until melted and smooth.

5

Assemble the Cannoli

Fill the cooled shells with the ricotta mixture using a piping bag. Drizzle with chocolate sauce and dust with powdered sugar before serving.
