If you like cannoli then you will love this dip and it is easier to make. Cannoli are tubular-shaped shells made of pastry dough that have been deep fried and stuffed with a ricotta and cream cheese mixture. This is a deconstructed version of cannoli where the filling becomes the dip and you can use whatever you like for dipping. Some people use broken up waffle cones, graham crackers, apples, or pretzels. This post was inspired by Buzzfeed. I saw their article for ricotta cheese recipes and saw their recipe for Canolli Dip. Since it is pumpkin season, I threw in some canned pumpkin, cinnamon for spice and some vanilla extract. And there you have it, a whole new recipe that you can call your very own by just adding 3 ingredients.
