Filling

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ricotta Mixture

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the ricotta cheese and powdered sugar. Mix with a hand mixer or whisk until smooth and creamy.

  2. 2

    Add Flavorings

    Add the vanilla extract and cinnamon to the ricotta mixture. Stir until well combined.

  3. 3

    Whip the Cream

    In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. This will give the cannoli cream a light and airy texture.

  4. 4

    Fold in the Whipped Cream

    Gently fold the whipped cream into the ricotta mixture using a spatula. Be careful not to deflate the whipped cream.

  5. 5

    Add Chocolate Chips

    Fold in the mini chocolate chips evenly throughout the cream mixture.

  6. 6

    Chill the Cream

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the cannoli cream for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld and the mixture to firm up.
