Yield 12 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 box cake mix, prepared
15 oz ricotta cheese
8 oz mascarpone cheese, room temperature
1 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup mini chocolate chips
2 cups dark chocolate
3 tablespoons coconut oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
  • Line a muffin tin with liners and cooking spray.
  • Prepare cake mix according to its directions.
  • Fill liners about ¾ of the way up with the cupcake batter.
  • Bake for about 20-25 minutes. A toothpick should come out dry when inserted.
  • Allow the cupcakes to cool completely.
  • In a large bowl, combine the ricotta, mascarpone, powdered sugar, and vanilla. Mix until well combined.
  • Fold in the mini chocolate chips.
  • Cut a ½ inch (1.5cm) hole on the tip of a pastry or zip top bag and fill with the cannoli cream.
  • Cut a circle in the center of each cupcake and press the center down into the bottom, creating a hole.
  • Fill the cupcake with cannoli cream and use a spiraling motion to create a swirl of the cream on top of the cupcake.
  • Put the cupcakes in the freezer for about 1 hour or until firm.
  • Melt the dark chocolate and coconut oil together.
  • Carefully, dip the tops of the cupcakes into the melted chocolate.
  • Place in the refrigerator to firm up if need be.
  • Enjoy!
