How to Make Cannoli Cream Dessert

  1. In a medium bowl, beat together 15 ounces ricotta cheese, 1/2 cup powdered sugar, 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until completely smooth and creamy.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup graham cracker crumbs and 1/4 cup melted butter. Mix until evenly moistened.
  3. Select two wine glasses or other elegant fluted glasses. Divide the graham cracker mixture evenly, placing 1/4 of it into the bottom of each glass, pressing gently to form a base. Create a small well in the center of each graham cracker layer.
  4. Spoon 1/4 of the cannoli cream mixture into the well of each glass.
  5. Repeat steps 3 and 4, layering another layer of graham cracker crust followed by another layer of cannoli cream.
  6. Garnish each dessert with 1 tablespoon of chopped fruit and 1 tablespoon of shredded chocolate.
  7. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to chill before serving.
