Smothered in a creamy, cheese-and-white wine sauce, these cheese-stuffed cannoli are a perfect addition to your Shavuos meal.

Note: You can use shells instead of cannoli. Simply rinse them (don’t cook) and stuff each shell until almost full.

Ingredients

Stuffed Cannoli

  • 1 package cannoli

  • 2 tablespoons oil such as Gefen

  • 1 package fresh mushrooms, sliced

  • salt, to taste

  • black pepper, to taste

  • 2 cups ricotta cheese

  • 2 cups mozzarella cheese

  • 1 egg

Cream Sauce

  • 4 tablespoons butter

  • 3 cloves garlic, chopped or 3 cubes Gefen Frozen Garlic

  • 1 and 1/2 tablespoons salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

  • 3 teaspoons oregano plus more for garnish (optional)

  • 3 tablespoons flour

  • 2 cups milk

  • 1 and 3/4 cups white wine such as Baron Herzog Chardonnay

  • 2 cups mozzarella cheese plus more for sprinkling

  • parsley for garnish (optional)

Directions

Prepare the Cannoli

1.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a 9×13-inch pan.

2.

Rinse cannoli, drain, and set aside. (Or cook shells according to package instructions, drain, and set aside.)

3.

In a skillet, heat oil. Add mushrooms and cook for eight to 10 minutes. Add a pinch of salt and pepper, mix, and set aside.

4.

In a bowl, mix cheeses and egg.

5.

Fill cannoli until almost full (or place 3/4 tablespoon of filling in each shell).

Prepare the Cheese Sauce

1.

In a small pot, melt butter. Add garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper and cook until fragrant.

2.

Add flour and cook for one minute.

3.

Add milk and wine and bring to a boil. Lower the flame and cook for one to two minutes, stirring occasionally.

4.

Remove pot from heat and add mozzarella cheese. Mix until cheese melts and sauce is smooth.

To Finish

1.

Pour 1/3 of the creamy cheese mixture into pan. Top with cannoli. Pour remaining cheese sauce on top.

2.

Place mushroom mixture on cheese sauce. Sprinkle some more mozzarella over everything.

3.

Cover and bake for 30 minutes.

4.

Uncover and bake for an additional 15–20 minutes.

5.

Garnish with more oregano or some parsley.
