    Ingredients

    • 1 1/2 c. ALL-PURPOSE FLOUR
    • 1 pch SALT
    • 1/2 tsp BAKING Pwdr
    • 2 x Large eggs
    • 4 tsp SUGAR
    • 2 Tbsp. BUTTER

    Directions

    1. 1. Combine flour, salt, baking pwdr, 1 egg, sugar, & butter; mix well.
    2. 2. Gradually add in sufficient wine to make a hard dough. Knead till smooth & elastic. Roll into very thin sheets; cut into 12 squares.
    3. 3. Place metal cannoli tubes diagonally onto each square so tube divides each square into 2 triangles. Lay points of triangles over tubes so they meet in middle.
    4. Separate remaining egg & use a little of the egg white to moisten overlap.
    5. Press gently to seal.
    6. 4. Heat 3-4 inches deep extra virgin olive oil in deep pan. Fry cannoli till golden, drain well on paper towels, & cold. Remove metal tubes.
    7. 5. Combine remaining part of egg with ricottta cheese, orange flower water, candied orange, & chocolate & blend well. Fill cannoli with cheese mix. Sprinkle with confectioner's sugar.
