In 5 minutes I made cannoli and filled them with cream: delicious | Only 130 calories!

To conclude a dinner or lunch with friends in a superlative way, without having to go to the pastry shop, bring the cream-filled cannoli to the table and you will leave everyone speechless. This is a dessert that is unrivaled and tempting so much that it takes a certain self-control not to eat them all.

They will also give a touch of color and goodness at the end of the meal, even more so if there are guests and you have every intention of ending with a bang. Preparing them takes little time, in fact it is sufficient to buy a good roll of puff pastry and fill it with the cream prepared by you.

Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 26 minutes
Total Time: 31 minutes
Servings: 13 cannoli
Calories: 130 per piece

Ingredients

• 1 roll of rectangular puff pastry (also light) – 250 gr
• 500ml of milk
• 5 yolks
• 50 gr of stevia sweetener (or 100 gr of normal sugar)
• 50 gr of corn starch
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla essence

What is needed to brush

• 1 beaten egg

What is needed for garnish

• Just enough peach jam or to taste without added sugar
• As much as needed of chopped almonds (optional)
• Just enough icing sugar

Preparation

1. First, let’s prepare the cream for the cannoli: pour the milk into a saucepan, add the vanilla essence, turn on the stove, cover with a lid and cook for 5 minutes on medium heat .
2. Now break the eggs into a bowl, beat them with a hand whisk, add the stevia sweetener (or sugar), mix for 3 minutes , add the cornstarch and mix without forming lumps.
3. Now add the milk flavored with vanilla to the eggs, mix, transfer everything back into the saucepan and light the heat.
4. Stir without stopping and let it thicken, it will take about 3 minutes over medium heat , then pour the cream into a container, cover it with the transparent film in contact and place it in the fridge to cool.
5. Take the rectangular puff pastry, cut about 13 strips 1 cm thick , wrap them around the aluminum (or paper) cones and place them in a dripping pan previously lined with special paper.
6. Once this is done, brush the surface of the cannoli with a beaten egg, then put them to cook in the oven for 18 minutes at a temperature of 200°C , at the end remove the cannoli from the cones (use an oven glove to avoid burning yourself).
7. Finally, spice up the cream with an electric whisk, transfer it to a pastry bag (if you haven’t used a spoon), fill the cannoli, brush them with the jam and sprinkle them with the chopped almonds and icing sugar.
