This pure dessert bliss is well worth the effort of making from scratch. You’ll learn to make Cannoli Dough, how to roll and fry it to a crispy texture, and fill it with an irresistible Sweet Ricotta Filling. Mary Cooney will teach you how to get the perfect consistency of the cannoli filling, and (when) and how to fill the shells. We’ll also make another Italian favorite, Tiramisù, a creamy dessert of espresso-soaked ladyfingers surrounded by Italian Pastry Cream with shaved chocolate. This is a great make-ahead stunner.
