Ingredients:
For the shells:- 2 cups all-purpose flour, plus additional, for rolling
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons vegetable shortening
- 2 eggs, divided
- ½ cup dry white wine
For the filling:
- 2 cups whole milk ricotta, drained
- 1 cup mascarpone
- 1 cup powdered sugar, plus additional for dusting
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¾ cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
Canola oil, as needed, for frying
- 4 metal cannoli molds, or 4 wooden dowels cut to 6-inch long, 1-inch-diameter
Instructions:
For the shells:- Add the flour, granulated sugar, salt, cinnamon, shortening, one egg and wine to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the hook attachment. Mix on medium-low speed until well-combined and a smooth dough forms, about 8 minutes.
- Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and roll out so that it is 1/8-inch thick. The dough can also be rolled out thinly and evenly by putting the dough through a pasta machine set to the thickest setting (usually setting number 1). Using a 4-inch cookie cutter cut circles out of the dough. Gently pull the dough into an oval 5-inches long. Repeat with the remaining dough, you may have to re-roll out the dough with the scraps. You should end up with about 12 ovals. In a small bowl whisk the remaining egg.
