Instructions

Prepare and bake the cake in a 13×9 baking dish according to the package directions.

Cool the cake completely.

Use a wooden spoon to poke holes across the top of the cooled cake. Do not poke all the way through to the bottom.

Reserve ½ cup of the sweetened condensed milk. Pour the remaining sweetened condensed milk over the top of the cake. Ensuring it seeps into the holes and evenly coats the top.

Refrigerate for one hour.

Meanwhile, combine the ricotta cheese, mascarpone cheese, vanilla and cinnamon in a large bowl.

Slowly mix in the confectioner’s sugar until combined.

Stir in the reserved 1/2 cup of sweetened condensed milk.

Spread the ricotta mixture evenly over the top of the cake.

Sprinkle mini chocolate chips over the top.

Refrigerate for 2-3 hours before serving.

Right before serving, dust with additional confectioner’s sugar.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Cheese Blend Perfection 🧀
Drain ricotta cheese overnight in a cheesecloth to remove excess moisture, ensuring a thick, creamy filling that won't make your cake soggy.
Chocolate Chip Distribution 🍫
Toss mini chocolate chips in a bit of flour before folding into the filling to prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the cake.
Layering Technique 🎂
Use a piping bag or offset spatula to create even, smooth layers of filling between cake layers for a professional-looking presentation.
Flavor Enhancing Trick 🌿
Add a splash of marsala wine or amaretto to the filling for an authentic cannoli flavor that elevates the entire dessert.
Chilling for Perfection 🧊
Refrigerate the assembled cake for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow flavors to meld and filling to set perfectly.
