Pandoro cannoli, a delicious and easy-to-make Christmas dessert, extremely delightful, requiring only a few ingredients to create a dessert to serve as a post-meal treat or to accompany a coffee. You can also prepare these pandoro cannoli with ricotta and chocolate chips if you are organizing a party for exchanging greetings with friends or colleagues. I made them small using a 3.5-inch cookie cutter so they wouldn’t be too complicated to eat and fill, but of course, if you prefer, you can make them larger. For the cannoli mold, I used aluminum foil, but if you make the circles larger, you can also use the specific cannoli molds.
