Mini Cannoli Cups

step 1 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Roll out the Sweet Loren’s Pie Crust Dough. Use a rolling pin to roll the pie crust out so that it is slightly thinner.

step 2 Use a 3 inch circle-shaped cutter (a cup or bowl works too!) to cut out circles. Combine the scraps and re-roll out the dough to the same thickness to cut out more circles.

step 3 Use a fork to dock the dough then fit each circle into a muffin tin. Bake them in the oven for 15-20 minutes until they start to brown. Set them aside to cool.

step 4 In a bowl, add the ricotta, powdered sugar, granulated sugar, lemon zest, and vanilla extract. Use a hand mixer to whip the filling together until combined. Transfer the filling into a resealable bag and cut off the tip.

step 5 When the cannoli shells have cooled, spoon or pipe the filling into the shells. Top with mini chocolate chips and enjoy!
