METHOD TO MAKE SHELLS In the KitchenAid Stand
Mixer mix together flour, sugar and salt using
the flat beater. Start with No. 2 Cut in the
butter. Add the Egg yolk and mix at No. 2. Now
stir in the wine 1 tbsp at a time. Once the
dough starts clinging on, stop and remove. Form
a ball and let it stand for 30 minutes. Take
the Pasta Roller attachment and fix it to the
Attachment hub. Flatten the dough and roll it
paper thin (like Pasta) starting with No. 1 and
moving to No. 5. Make sure to dust the surface
well with flour each time before passing it
through the roller. Once paper thin, put the
dough on a well floured surface and cut out
circles (3 4 inches diameter). Roll each
circle of dough around a metal tube, overlapping
the ends and press to seal. Flare out the edges
slightly. Heat oil/shortening in a pan and deep
fry the cannoli tubes till all the sides brown
out evenly. Remove and drain on kitchen towels
with seam side down. Allow to cool and remove
the cannoli tubes.

FOR FILLING Drain the Riccotta cheese if
ricotta is watery. Combine the Ricotta cheese,
powdered sugar and vanilla extract in the Stand
mixer using a flat beater at speed 2. Squeeze
Maraschino Cherries with paper towels to remove
all liquid. Stir in the chocolate chips and
cherries into the ricotta mixture. For a
lighter filling, you may whip 1 cup of whipping
cream to form stiff peaks and fold into the
filling mixture at this minute. Refrigerate and
chill for about 30 minutes. Pipe the mixture
into the cooled cannoli shells. Garnish the
Cannoli by sprinkling powdered sugar on
top.Alternatively, melt some chocolate and dip
the Cannoli edge in the chocolate and
refrigerate. Allow the chocolate to set and then
use the cannoli shells.
