Ingredients
- 4 oz. cream cheese softened
- ½ cup whole milk ricotta cheese
- ¾ cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- ½ cup crushed pistachios
- 3 oz. waffle cones broken
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 14 oz. sweetened condensed milk
Instructions
- Place the cream cheese, ricotta cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla, and chocolate chips in a large bowl and mix using a hand mixer. Set aside.
- Pour the heavy whipping cream into a large mixing bowl. Using a hand mixer, whip the cream until stiff peaks form, about 2 minutes. Add the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and the cream cheese mixture to the whipped cream. Gently fold the ingredients together until well combined.
- Transfer the ice cream to a loaf pan and cover with plastic wrap. Freeze for at least 5 hours.
- Serve in a waffle cone!
Tips & Notes
- This is a basic cannoli filling. It can be adjusted in many ways. Add 1 tablespoon of orange zest, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, or swap the vanilla extract for peppermint or almond extract. Crushed pistachios are a great garnish option.
- This is a great dip to make on the fly or to make a day ahead of time.
- We like freezing the ice cream in a loaf pan. It has the perfect dimensions for scooping!
