    Instructions

    Beat ricotta cheese and 1 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar together in a bowl until smooth. Stir in mixed peel and chocolate. Cover and refrigerate for 3 hours.

    Mix flour, Marsala wine, butter, sugar, and vinegar together in a bowl to make cannoli dough. Wrap in plastic wrap; let rest for 30 minutes.
    3
    |
    Knead dough on a lightly floured work surface until smooth. Roll to 1/8-inch thickness. Cut into twenty 4-inch squares. Wrap each square around a metal tubular mold, overlapping ends and dabbing with warm water to seal.

    Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Lower some cannoli molds into the hot oil; cook until shells are golden and crisp, about 10 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Repeat with remaining cannoli molds. Cool briefly; twist molds carefully to remove shells. Let shells cool completely, about 15 minutes.

    Fill cooled cannoli shells with ricotta filling using a spoon or piping bag. Arrange cannoli on a serving platter. Garnish with pistachios; sprinkle 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar on top.

    Tips & Tricks (5)

    • Ricotta Draining Technique 🧀
      Drain the ricotta cheese overnight in a fine-mesh strainer to remove excess moisture and ensure a thick, creamy filling that won't become watery.
    • Cannoli Shell Perfection 🥐
      When rolling out the dough, aim for paper-thin consistency (about 1/16 inch thick) to achieve a delicate, crispy shell that shatters perfectly when bitten.
    • Oil Temperature Mastery 🌡️
      Use a candy thermometer to maintain oil temperature between 350-375°F for cannoli shells, ensuring golden-brown color without absorbing excess oil.
    • Filling Technique Magic 🥄
      Pipe the ricotta filling into the shells just before serving to prevent the crisp shells from becoming soggy, preserving their signature crunch.
    • Pistachio Topping Pro Tip 🥜
      Toast pistachios briefly in a dry pan before chopping to enhance their nutty flavor and add a deeper, more complex taste to the cannoli garnish.
