HOW TO MAKE SICILIAN CANNOLI CAKE

FOR THE BASE

Melt the butter. Chop the wafers and biscuits in the mixer, when they are reduced to powder, transfer them to the bowl and add the melted butter. Mix the mixture well and pour it into the cake pan lined with parchment paper. Use the back of a spoon to compact the base and let it rest in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes. 

FOR THE RICOTTA CREAM

Let the ricotta drain very well, I recommend putting the ricotta in a colander at least the day before. Put it in a bowl together with the sugar and mix until you get a creamy mixture, if you want you can sift it I prefer it a little more rustic. Add the chocolate chips to the ricotta and stir. Put the gelatin leaves in cold water, when they are soft, squeeze them and dissolve them in hot milk. Add the gelatin to the ricotta cream and stir.

HOW TO MAKE SICILIAN CANNOLI CAKE

Take the base of the cannoli cake and pour it on the bottom of the biscuits, level and place the crumbled wafers and chopped pistachios on the surface of the cake. Let the cannoli cake rest in the refrigerator for at least 4/5 hours. After the resting time, decorate it with Sicilian cannoli and enjoy!
