Mini Cannoli



Need a good dessert fast? This one is for you—the classic flavors of cannoli in bite-sized phyllo cups. Not only are these incredibly tasty, they go together in no time flat. You may have filling leftover-you can either pick up another package of phyllo cups and make more or don’t tell anyone and grab a spoon. I’m in favor of the latter.

Ingredients (makes 30 mini cannoli):
1 (16 ounce) part skim ricotta cheese, drained of any excess liquid
2 Tablespoons powdered sugar
Zest of 1 large orange
½ cup mini chocolate chips
2 packages (15 per package) baked mini phyllo cups

Directions:
Mix the ricotta, powdered sugar, orange zest and chocolate chips in a bowl. Spoon into the phyllo cups. That’s it-done!


Just a hint-you can make the filling ahead of time, but don’t spoon it into the shells until you are about ready to serve, otherwise the shells can get soggy.
