Instructions

  1. In a deep frying pan, heat some sunflower oil over medium to high heat.
  2. Fry the cannoli shells a few at a time, until they turn golden, then transfer to a plate lined with absorbent paper.
  3. Heat the honey until it is liquefied, and using a brush, spread it evenly over the surface of the pastry.
  4. Dip the cannoli into the grated coconut and then set aside.
  5. In a mixer bowl, mix the cream cheese, cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla. Beat the mixture at high speed with the whisk until it becomes fluffy and smooth. Transfer to a pastry bag.
  6. Fill the cannoli with the resulting cream and refrigerate for 3 hours.
  7. Serve the cannoli cold directly from the refrigerator.

Notes

  • Chef’s tip: The cannoli should be consumed on the same day they are cooked, as if left in the fridge for a day they may unfold.
