With the way my family eats spaghetti, carbonara, pastas in general, and cannoli you’d think we had some Italian in the blood line. Nope, none.

But that doesn’t sway our love of Italian food, or Cannoli.

My dad loves them, My Husband Loves them, I love them… Mom kinda thinks they are ok 😉

When we lived on the Marine Base, the Commissary there sold Cannoil on base for .25 cents each and I use to stock up on them for a treat to keep around the house. But here, I can’t find them. Well I can, but I can only find them at one Italian Restaurant and one bakery that is hardly ever open.

So for Thanksgiving one year back when we first got married, I made this dip as a surprise for everyone and it was a hit! We’ve been in love with it ever since!

If you can get ahold of Marscapone cheese instead of ricotta, get it. It’s what my Sicilian grandmother always used. It’s what actually goes into authentic canolis. 🙂

  I will look for some when I go to make it again. I feel like I’ll have to go to one of the bigger markets in a city nearby to get it. I’ve looked everywhere here for Marscapone but can’t find it 🙁

  While marscapone may also be very delicious and worth a try, real italian canolis are made with ricotta and also candied fruits but that is optional.

There are so many different versions of this dip, I made this, it was simple and awesome. My family members were eating it with a spoon. Definitely a crowd pleaser. Only change I added a couple tbsps more of powdered sugar and I used a hand mixer to make it smooth. This is a keeper! Thanks so much.
