Cannoli Filling

Looking for a decadently delicious filling of sweet, creamy ricotta and mascarpone with a hint of chocolate? By using ready made good quality cannoli you can whip up these impressive sweet treats in next to no time. I guarantee that the compliments will come your way thick and fast.  Good quality European delicatessen's or specialty food stores stock the ready made deep-fried tubes.


Ingredients

300g fresh ricotta (from a deli not the prepacked supermarket type)
100g caster sugar
200g mascarpone
1/4 cup glace cherries (can be omitted if preferred)
1/2 cup candied citrus peel
1 teaspoon orange essence
1 teaspoon rum
2 tablespoon chopped/grated good quality chocolate

Method

Combine all ingredients and mix thoroughly.

Spoon into a piping bag (or zip lock bag with the end cut off) and fill pre made cannoli.

Dust with icing sugar.

Serve and await the compliments.
