How to Make Chocolate Eggnog Cannoli

  1. **Make the Cannoli Shells:** In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, and salt.
  2. Cut in the cold, cubed butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and honey.
  4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.
  5. Divide the dough in half, flatten each half into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill for at least 30 minutes.
  6. On a lightly floured surface, roll out each dough disk to a 16-inch square.
  7. Cut each square into sixteen 4-inch squares.
  8. Wrap each square tightly around one end of a greased metal cannoli tube, overlapping the edges slightly.
  9. Brush the overlapping dough with the beaten egg white to seal.
  10. Heat about 3 inches of vegetable oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot to 350°F (175°C).
  11. Carefully fry the cannoli shells in batches for about 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
  12. Remove the shells with tongs and drain on paper towels.
  13. Gently remove the cannoli shells from the tubes and let them cool completely.
  14. **Make the Eggnog Filling:** In a chilled bowl, beat the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gradually add the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract, beating until combined.
  15. Gently fold in the eggnog.
  16. **Assemble the Cannoli:** Fill a pastry bag with the eggnog filling. Pipe the filling into each cooled cannoli shell.
  17. Dip the ends of the cannoli into red and green sprinkles.
  18. Serve immediately or chill for a few minutes before serving.
