But let&#8217;s face it\u2014they can be a bit messy to eat, with filling and shell going everywhere. That&#8217;s where these mini cannoli bites swoop in to save the day! They&#8217;re the perfect bite-sized solution to enjoying the deliciousness of a classic Italian cannoli without the fuss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In these mini cannoli bites, we swap out the traditional cannoli shell for frozen phyllo tart shells. Then, we whip up a simple yet decadent filling using ricotta cheese, sugar, a hint of orange zest, and a splash of vanilla. Fill each little shell to the top, sprinkle with chocolate chips, pistachios, and a dusting of powdered sugar, and voil\u00e0\u2014you&#8217;ve got yourself a taste of la dolce vita.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To make party prep a breeze, you can whip up the filling up to 2 days ahead of time. Just pop it in a bag, stash it in the fridge, and you&#8217;re all set when it&#8217;s time to assemble.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--WPRM Recipe 33433-->\n<div class=\"wprm-fallback-recipe\">\n\t<h2 class=\"wprm-fallback-recipe-name\">Cannoli Bites<\/h2>\n\t\t<p class=\"wprm-fallback-recipe-summary\">\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t<div class=\"wprm-fallback-recipe-equipment\">\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"wprm-fallback-recipe-ingredients\">\n\t\t<ul><li>24 frozen phyllo tart shells<\/li><li>2 tablespoons granulated sugar<\/li><li>1\/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon<\/li><li>2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)<\/li><li>1 15-oz. container whole-milk ricotta cheese, drained<\/li><li>3\/4 cup 85 g powdered sugar, plus extra for dusting<\/li><li>1 teaspoon finely grated orange zest<\/li><li>1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract<\/li><li>Mini chocolate chips or chopped pistachios (for topping)<\/li><\/ul>\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"wprm-fallback-recipe-instructions\">\n\t\t<ol><li>Preheat your oven to 425\u00b0F.
