These dessert baking cups are great for baking something in them or making assembled desserts such as these dessert cups with cannoli cream.
You can fill them with whatever you like!
Pictured I did pound cake, cannoli cream and topped with chocolate dipped strawberries.
You can use pudding to fill the cups instead of cannoli cream.
Create whatever pleases you.
Cannoli cream ingredients:
15oz-16oz ricotta cheese, whole milk
5 TBLS confectioner’s sugar
1 TSP vanilla, paste type is preferred
2 TBLS cornstarch
½ TSP cinnamon
mini chocolate chips, to sprinkle on top
1 store bought butter pound cake
Bakers chocolate melting cup, I used milk chocolate
8-10 fresh strawberries
Directions;
Mix the cannoli cream in a processor or if you don’t have one a blender. Set aside.
Have the strawberries at room temperature. Place them on a pan with wax paper.
Melt the chocolate according to the directions on the cup.
Dip the strawberries and place them on the wax paper pan.
Let them sit for 1/2 hour and then refrigerate.
Slice the pound cake about 1/2 inch thick and cut out a circle of cake with a glass or biscuit cutter and press it into the dessert cups.
Top with the cannoli cream and sprinkle with the mini chocolate chips.
Place a dipped strawberry on top.
Chill and serve the same day.
