Sicilian cannoli with ricotta filling are classic. Make the filling ahead and stuff cannoli shells before eating.
– 1 pound whole milk ricotta cheese (drained) – ½ cup powdered sugar – 1 small orange, zested (about a teaspoon of zest) – ⅓ cup mini chocolate chips (divided) – ⅓ cup shelled pistachios, lightly chopped (divided) – 24 mini cannoli shells (or 12 large cannoli shells) – powdered sugar for dusting
Put the ricotta that has been drained, powdered sugar, and orange zest in a big bowl.
Add the last few tiny chocolate chips and pistachios to the ends of the cannoli. Sprinkle with powdered sugar, and serve right away.
