Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 3/4 cups plus 1 tablespoon Italian 00 flour or all-purpose flour ((250g))
  • 4 tbsp cold butter ((55g))
  • 1 large egg (beaten (plus 1 egg white for sealing the cannoli))
  • ¼ cup sugar ((50g) granulated or caster sugar)
  • ¼ cup marsala ((60ml))
  • Pinch of cinnamon
  • ½ tsp cocoa powder
  • 1 tbsp white wine vinegar
  • Sunflower oil (for frying)
  • 4 cups ricotta (drained (1 kg))
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • zest of 1 lemon or orange ((optional))
  • Candied orange (nuts or chocolate chips)

Instruction

  • Before starting, place the ricotta in a sieve over a bowl and store it in the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight if possible. It’s important to drain the ricotta or it’ll be too soft for filling the cannoli.
