Ingredients

• 200g ricotta cheese
• 50g shelled pistachios
• 6 cannoli shells
• 50g honey
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1 tsp cocoa powder

Directions

1. Start by preparing the ricotta cheese. Place a strainer over a bowl and line it with cheesecloth. Pour the ricotta cheese into the strainer and let it drain for about 30 minutes to remove excess moisture.
2. While the ricotta is draining, crush the pistachios into small pieces. You can do this by placing them in a plastic bag and using a rolling pin to gently crush them.
3. In a separate bowl, combine the drained ricotta cheese, crushed pistachios, honey, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
4. Spoon the ricotta mixture into a piping bag or a plastic bag with a corner snipped off.
5. Carefully pipe the ricotta mixture into the cannoli shells, filling them from both ends until they are completely filled.
6. Dust the filled cannoli with cocoa powder for a finishing touch.
7. Serve and enjoy your delicious Cannoli al Pistacchio!
