Tiramisu Cannelloni

This dessert brings together two Italian favourites in one unforgettable bite: crisp, golden cannelloni shells fried to mimic classic cannoli, then filled with a rich espresso mascarpone cream. It’s a bold fusion of texture and flavour that’s as elegant as it is indulgent.

Ingredients

  • 12 Italpasta Oven Ready Cannelloni
  • 1/4 cup (60 mL) granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp (5 mL) ground cinnamon
  • Canola oil, for frying
  • 1 cup (250 mL) mascarpone cheese
  • 1/3 cup (75 mL) confectioners’ (icing) sugar
  • 2 tbsp (30 mL) instant espresso powder
  • 1 tsp (5 mL) vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup (125 mL) whipped topping
  • 1 tbsp (15 mL) unsweetened cocoa powder, for dusting

Instructions

  • In shallow bowl, stir together granulated sugar and cinnamon.
  • In medium saucepan set over medium heat, heat enough oil to reach 3 inches (7.5 cm) up sides of saucepan until shimmering or instant-read thermometer registers 325°F (160°C).
  • Working in batches, carefully drop uncooked cannelloni shells into hot oil and fry for 60 to 90 seconds or until golden and crisp all over. Using tongs, transfer to paper towel–lined tray to drain for a few seconds, then roll in cinnamon sugar until well coated. Transfer to parchment-lined tray and let cool completely.
  • In large bowl, using electric mixer, beat mascarpone, confectioners’ sugar, espresso powder and vanilla until smooth and combined. Fold in whipped topping. Transfer filling to piping bag fitted with large star tip.
  • Pipe filling into one end of each cannelloni shell halfway, then pipe filling into the other end to fill completely. Enjoy immediately for an ultra-crisp cannoli, or chill in refrigerator for 3 to 4 hours before serving.
  • Dust with cocoa powder before serving.
