      Title: CLASSIC CANNOLI - CANNOLI ALLA SICILIANA
 Categories: Italian, Desserts
      Yield: 6 servings
 
  1 1/2 c  ALL-PURPOSE FLOUR
      1 pn SALT
    1/2 ts BAKING POWDER
      2    EGGS
      4 ts SUGAR
      2 tb BUTTER
      1 c  MARSALA OR DESSERT WINE
           OLIVE OIL
    1/2 lb RICOTTA CHEESE
      4 ts ORANGE FLOWER WATER
    1/2 c  DICED CANDIED ORANGE OR
           -CITRON
      1 oz BITTER CHOCOLATE, CRUSHED

  1. Combine flour, salt, baking powder, 1 egg, sugar, & butter; mix
  well.
  2. Gradually add enough wine to make a firm dough. Knead until smooth
  & elastic. Roll into very thin sheets; cut into 12 squares.
  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. Separate remaining egg & use a little
  of the egg white to moisten overlap. Press gently to seal.
  4. Heat 3-4 inches deep olive oil in deep pan. Fry cannoli until
  golden brown, drain well on paper towels, & cool. Remove metal tubes.
  5. Combine remaining part of egg with ricottta cheese, orange flower
  water, candied orange, & chocolate & blend well. Fill cannoli with
  cheese mixture. Sprinkle with confectioner's sugar.
