California Farm Baked Cannoli Cookies

No deep frying oil or Italian cooking classes needed! Baking ovals of cannoli chocolate dough, rolling them into tubes over bamboo chop sticks, baking them to a crisp, stuffing them with homemade fresh chocolate ricotta cheese and cream, dipped in molten chocolate and crushed nuts, tastes just like from a professional pastry baker. Great treats for winter holidays.
