Mini Cannoli Cups are a delightful combination of crispy crust and creamy filling, perfect for any celebration.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package Store-bought pie crusts
  • 1 tablespoon Raw turbinado sugar
  • 15 ounces Whole ricotta cheese
  • 1/2 cup Powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Orange zest
  • 1/2 cup Mini chocolate chips
  • 2 tablespoons Additional powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F. Spray the bottom of a mini muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Unroll the pie crusts on a lightly floured surface. Pinch any cracks together gently.
  3. Sprinkle half of the raw turbinado sugar evenly over each pie crust.
  4. Cut out rounds using a 2 ½ or 3-inch round cookie cutter. Save the scraps to reroll.
  5. Shape the crust circles around the underside of each mini muffin cup to create the cups.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes or until slightly golden brown.
  7. Cool the cups completely to maintain the texture.
  8. In a large bowl, mix drained ricotta cheese, powdered sugar, granulated sugar, orange zest until just combined.
  9. Fill the cooled cups by spooning in the ricotta mixture.
  10. Top each cannoli cup with a sprinkle of mini chocolate chips.
  11. Dust with a layer of additional powdered sugar before serving.
  12. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge.

Notes

  • Ensure ricotta cheese is well-drained for best consistency.
  • Use a nonstick spray to avoid sticking.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge for freshness.
