Ingredients

Cupcakes

Cannoli Filling

  • 1/2 cup ricotta cheese (undrained)
  • 1/2 cup mascarpone cheese
  • 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 serving Eggnog Keto Chow (or 1 scoop)
  • 1/4 cup allulose
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/2 tsp liquid stevia

Instructions

Cupcakes

  • Preheat oven to 350F.
  • In a bowl, combine all dry ingredients.
  • Beat in eggs, butter, and stevia.
  • Blend until smooth. Allow mixture to sit for 5 minutes so the coconut flour absorbs any excess moisture.
  • Scoop into 8 cupcake molds.
  • Bake at 350F for 20 minutes or until they pass the toothpick test.
  • Allow to cool before frosting.

Cannoli Cream

  • Using a high speed mixer, beat together mascarpone and ricotta cheese.
  • Once well combined, add Keto Chow, cinnamon, allulose, nutmeg, and stevia. Combine well.
  • Add in heavy whipping cream as you continue to mix.
  • Allow to chill in the fridge until ready.
  • Once cupcakes are cool, using a pastry bag and tip, squeeze some cannoli cream into each cupcake. With the remaining cream, top each cupcake like a frosting.

Notes

Usually when making cannoli cream, people drain the ricotta in a cheesecloth. DO NOT do that with this recipe. The Keto Chow will remove all the excess moisture. If you drain the ricotta, you will get a very dry, clumpy cream.
Depending on the time of year, you can use any flavor of Keto Chow.
