Ingredients
– 12 cannelloni tubes (store-bought or homemade)
– 2 cups ricotta cheese
– 1 cup powdered sugar
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1 cup heavy cream

Instructions
Creating Sweet Cannelloni can be accomplished with these straightforward steps:
1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Prepare the Filling: In a large bowl, combine ricotta cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy.
3. Prepare Cannelloni: If using dry cannelloni tubes, cook them according to package directions until al dente and then drain.
4. Fill Cannelloni: Using a piping bag or a small spoon, carefully fill each cannelloni tube with the ricotta mixture.
5. Prepare the Baking Dish: Lightly grease a baking dish and arrange the filled cannelloni tubes side by side.
6. Add Chocolate Chips: Sprinkle chocolate chips over the cannelloni for added flavor.
7. Whip Cream: In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Fold this into the ricotta filling mixture gently.
8. Cover the Dish: Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until heated through.
9. Cool Down: Once done, remove from the oven and let cool for about 15-20 minutes.
10. Serve: After cooling, drizzle some dark chocolate sauce over the cannelloni and garnish with fresh berries and a dusting of powdered sugar before serving.
