A twist on the tradional Sicilian Cannoli Honorable Mention Winner in Karo's "Signature Dessert Challenge," 2012 We grew up spending every weekend at our Nonna's house. I have fond memories of sitting on a chair to stir the pot on the stove, and studying her every move as she hand measured all her ingredients. After many years, I began to write her recipes down. One of my favorite memories is making cannoli with her. She let me wrap the round discs of dough around the wooden dowels and stir the confectioners sugar in the creamy, sweet ricotta. And, I remember dipping my finger in and scooping some of the cannoli mixture to eat while she wasn't looking! Holidays were especially fun, since we made special treats. She, indeed, left us the most treasured legacy. . Since the best recipes are the ones that are shared, I wanted to take out my family's recipe box and share my Nonna's classic cannoli recipe, but with my modern twist. This recipe really solves the dilemma of the fried cannoli shell. The Karo Corn Syrup helps to create a pliable foundation upon which the almonds and oats are set allowing it to be shaped around the cannoli form after it is baked. Everything marries together beautifully, with just the right flavor balance of sweet and salty, and texture balance of creamy and crunchy. Karo Corn Syrup helps create the perfect house for the filling, and this version of cannoli is all the flavors and textures I crave in an Italian dessert! Serve these cannoli with a hot cup of cappuccino, or espresso. INGREDIENTS: 1/3 cup of Karo Light Corn Syrup 1/2 cup of light brown sugar (packed) 1/2 stick of butter (salted) 1 cup of roasted, salted almonds (chopped) 1/3 cup of all purpose flour 1/4 cup of rolled oats 1/2 cup confectioners sugar 16 ounces of fresh whole milk ricotta (drained) 1 teaspoon of Amaretto, or almond extract 1-2 teaspoons of heavy cream (optional) 1/2 cup of mini semi-sweet chocolate chips 1/2 teaspoon of salt (fine) PREPARATION: 1.) Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 2.) In a 1 quart saucepan, cook brown sugar, butter, Karo Light Corn Syrup, and almond extract over medium heat. Remove from heat when mixture is liquified. 3.) In a large bowl, thoroughly combine flour, chopped almonds, oats. 4.) Pour the sugar/butter/corn syrup mixture over dry ingredients and thoroughly combine with a wooden spoon. 5.) Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and scoop 1-inch sized dough balls on sheet. (Spread dough about 4 inches apart, as they will spread about 4 inches.) Bake about 6-8 minutes. 6.) In a medium size bowl, thoroughly combine drained ricotta, confectioners sugar, mini chocolate chips, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. If mixture is too tick, you may add 1-2 teaspoons of heavy cream. 7. Transfer ricottta/cannoli filling to a pastry bag, using a large star tip for piping. 8.) Remove the almond lace cookies from the oven to cool for 1-2 minutes. (do not try and work with the cookies until they have set at least a couple of minutes.) 9.) Working one at a time, rip the parchment around one of the cookies (as seen in photo #3) and begin to form the cookie around the cannoli tube. Rest the cannoli shell with the seam down while it fully cools and sets. Continue in same fashion with all cannoli shells. 10.) When cannoli shells have cooled, slide off cannoli form, and pipe cannoli filling in one side first, then turn cannoli around and fill in other side until entire cannoli is filled . * COOK"S NOTES- If batter becomes too stiff to spoon, simply microwave for 20 seconds and it will soften back up. Also, if cookies cool before you form them into cannoli shells, simple return to oven for about one minute, and they will be workable again. If you do not have cannoli forms, you may use any other kitchen tool that is tubular and has 1/2 inch diameter, such as a large wooden spoon, etc..*

Caprese salad—that’s mozzarella, tomato, and balsamic—is addictive as an appetizer. In this recipe, we’re turning it into a main event.

Throw in some garlic and a drizzle of olive oil for flavor and you’ll realize at first bite, that’s amore.

John seriously considered leaving this recipe out of the book, not because there is anything wrong with it, but because he didn t really want us to have it. His generous good nature has won through, however, so here it is. While he would maintain that this is the best hedgerow delight imaginable, the elderflowers could easily be replaced with Japanese rose petals. A further possibility would be to use rosehip syrup to make Turkish delight, adjusting the sugar and water amounts accordingly.
I love these simple little cakes. I know they look quite plain, but trust me, they are absolutely delicious. The best thing about them is that they are so easy to make. In Australia, friands are typic
Phase 2 | Serves 6 Prep time: 20 minutes | Total time: 20 minutes, plus chilling time Ingredients 4 cups 1/2-inch pieces fresh rhubarb 1 cup xylitol * 2 tablespoons lemon juice 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon 1 teaspoon vanilla 2 large fresh egg whites 1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar Directions Combine the rhubarb, xylitol, lemon juice, and cinnamon in a heavy large saucepan. Stir over medium heat until the xylitol dissolves. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rhubarb is tender, occasionally stirring about 7 minutes. Stir in the vanilla. Cool the rhubarb mixture at least to room temperature. With an electric mixer, beat the egg whites with the cream of tartar until stiff peaks form. Stir 1/4 of the egg white into the cooled rhubarb mixture, and then gently fold in the remaining egg whites. Spoon into individual serving dishes and chill before serving. * NOTE: Because xylitol is an alcohol sugar, it’s broken down in your lower GI, so too much can cause intestinal discomfort in some people. We recommend trying just a tiny smidgen here and there—a quarter-teaspoon to start and see how you react.
