If you ever want to indulge, do try to find someone who sells freshly made cannolis--yum! (In case you don't know, they are crispy pastry tubes filled with cannoli cream.)<BR/>You could also try a St. Joseph's Day cake--same thing except the cannoli cream is piped into something like the shell of a cream puff.Mom2furhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09919967314390699344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12364613.post-1144259977925204592006-04-05T12:59:00.000-05:002006-04-05T12:59:00.000-05:00Mom2fur, I'm embarassed to say I've never had a ca...Mom2fur, I'm embarassed to say I've never had a cannoli : )<BR/><BR/>The recipe I'm using is from the South Beach diet book. It makes individual servings. It's not absolutely terrific, but it is low carb and low fat. Kind of like pudding without the starch. Take 1/2 cup part skim ricotta and mix 1 packet of artificial sweetener in it. Add 1/4 teaspoon extract of your choice (vanilla, almond, lemon) and some little garnish that complements the extract (lemon zest, slivered almonds, 1/2 teaspoon cocoa powder). Chill well before serving.Meredithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08455517419708043340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12364613.post-1144252108831916212006-04-05T10:48:00.000-05:002006-04-05T10:48:00.000-05:00So glad you liked it! :-)So glad you liked it! :-)Queen of Carrotshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03193758647591339890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12364613.post-1144243723352342682006-04-05T08:28:00.000-05:002006-04-05T08:28:00.000-05:00Oh, can I have your ricotta cream dessert recipe? ...Oh, can I have your ricotta cream dessert recipe?
