Cannoli Fake-Out

By pamdabear3383

Ingredients

• 3 cup(s) (whole-milk) ricotta cheese
• zest of 1 orange
• 1/4 cup(s) (superfine) sugar, use regular sugar if unavailable
• 8 sugar cones
• 1 cup(s) mini chocolate chips
• 1/2 cup(s) confectioners' sugar, in a sieve or sugar shaker

Preparation

Step 1

In a bowl, combine the ricotta, orange zest and superfine sugar. Transfer mixture to a pastry bag or a resealable plastic bag, snipping the corner off to create a homemade pastry bag.
Squeeze the ricotta mixture into each of the sugar cones, filling them all the way until the mixture just bulges out of the cone.
Arrange the mini chocolate chips in a small, shallow plate or bowl. Sprinkle the cones with the confectioners� sugar, if you like, then dip the exposed ricotta portion of the cone into the mini chocolate chips.
