I didn't realize going in that I needed a deep-fryer, so they are cannoli tacos.

 

[coolian2]

well, everyone loves tacos...so it can't possibly be bad.

[redhotswami]

mmmmmmm tacos

 

[Sicy]

mmmmmmmmmmm cannoli

The shells are the hardest part.

You can make them many different ways but I just stuff them with pudding or whip cream and chocolate bits, then sprinkle powdered sugar on top.

BoMac's pic wins.

I've never had one and they just sound fucking delicious. Well, the filling IS delicious, I should give myself some credit there at the very least.

BoMac's picture looks fantastic.

You could always just go buy some pre-made shells, to use up your filling. It wont be as good but at least the filling wont go to waste.

Next time that is definitely what will happen. Something else I found out later was that I could buy shells pre-made. not sure where in Texas to find them, but I WILL get this right lol.

What about ricotta cream? No offense, I've never heard of a cannoli with whipped cream, although I have had some with custard cream. But cannolis with ricotta own everything.

Ho shit! Well this I must think about

I'm not too into cannoli with ricotta because to me cannoli is a desert, and ricotta is cheese.. and it just doesnt seem right to put cheese in a desert like that.

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

I've made chocolate cream with ricotta that was pretty tasty

 

[bono_212]

Ricotta is a great cheese as far as desserts go.

 

[Sicy]

Maybe I'm not really Italian.

 

[cobl04]

I have a savoury tooth, not a sweet tooth

but cannoli might just be the best eatable thing of all time

After plain/original chips of course.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Best. Movie. Evar.

[nicv]

Why do I come in these threads....

 

[beegee]

I'm half Italian and I don't like cannoli.

I'm broken.

 

[SethVincent]

Sicy Makes Altobello Cannoli's

[Galeongirl]

Why did I only just now discover this thread?


To add to the discussion: If you don't like Ricotta, perhaps it's better to use the dessert equivalent: Mascarpone.

 

[zonelistener]

ricotta belongs in baked ziti

Sicy's cannolis bring all the boys to the yard.

Have you ever heard of cheesecake?

I'm not even kidding about this: If anyone wants to try some very good cannolis from the best Italian bakery in Montreal, I'll bring you one if you're going to the Montreal 360 show. It will make waiting all day in the GA line that much more bearable.

I had absolutely NO plans to make such a trek until this very moment.
