Directions

Prepare the Cannolis

  1. Place the store-bought cheesecake into a large mixing bowl and beat until smooth, adding a bit of milk at a time as needed to achieve a smooth, mousse-like consistency.

  2. Transfer mousse to a piping bag fitted with a large star tip and pipe into the cannoli shells, making sure to fill them fully. Serve immediately, refrigerate or freeze.

  3. If desired, use a bit of melted chocolate to fuse two cannolis together, making them look like Torah scrolls.

I think we once bought the cannoli wrappers to make this, but they were eaten up before we were able to. Thanks for the recipe!

Everyone loves these, only downside is that there's never leftovers!

So easy & fun! Was so easy to make and such a fun activity! Didn't have a fancy Piper bag but a regular ziplock bag did the trick. Taste was good too

Easy and festive This was really delicious and festive. I used a bit too much milk causing the filling to be a bit to runny. However it presented very nicely and everyone loved it. Most of all me for the easy way of making cannolli
