Cannoli Donuts
• 15 oz Galbani® Ricotta Cheese
• 16 oz Pizza dough, room temperature
• 1/4 cup Flour
• 1/3 cup Confectioner sugar
• 1 tsp Vanilla
• 1 cup Mini chocolate chips
• 1/3 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 Tbsp Cinnamon
• Quart Vegetable oil
Directions
- Cut the dough evenly into 2-inch pieces and roll each into a ball.
- Place on a lightly floured tray for 10-15 minutes to rest, so the dough can rise.
- In a medium-sized pot, add vegetable oil and heat slowly to approximately 350°F.
- Carefully add dough balls to the oil using a slotted spoon. Roll the balls around in the oil until they turn golden brown. Cook them approximately 3-4 minutes each side. Remove from oil and place on a paper towel to cool down.
- In a medium bowl, mix the ricotta, confection sugar, 3/4 cup of chocolate chips and vanilla.
- In a separate bowl, combine granulated sugar and cinnamon. Add the donuts to cinnamon and sugar. Toss around until coated and remove.
- Fill a pastry bag with ricotta mixture. Cut a small slice into each donut with a paring knife. Pipe mixture into the slice to fill each donut. If using a plastic bag, cut a tip off one of the corners to pipe the filling through.
- Garnish with leftover cinnamon-sugar and chocolate chips. Serve warm.
