Skinny Cannoli Dip

Ready for another skinny recipe? Good.

Can I just say, every time I thought about this dip, I was thinking of calling it “Holy Cannoli Skinny Dip”. When I was in the kitchen my husband asked what I was making and I was being silly and said, “I’m skinny dipping!” Ha ha.

Oh, by the way, I’m hilarious.

He was a little confused for some reason. Huh.

I told him what it was and that I wanted to call it Holy Cannoli Skinny Dip. He thought it might attract the wrong audience…

Anyway, this dip tastes just like the filling of a cannoli. (And you can eat it while fully clothed…) It is not quite as thick as traditional cannoli cream, but that won’t matter once you take a bite! I used waffle cones as dippers to mimic the cannoli shell, but apples and pears would taste amazing with this dip too (and they would be a bit healthier)!

I hope you are loving all these skinny recipes! It has been really fun for me to create fast and easy meals, snacks and desserts that are diet friendly too! Who knew skinny could be so creamy, dreamy, deicious?

Holy cannoli indeed! This dip is AWESOME, Steph!! After making mini cannolis last summer, I kind of became obsessed with them. A skinny dip I could eat and eat guiltlessly is genius and dangerous, but mostly genius and I love the Holy Cannoli Skinny Dip name!!!

Sounds interesting. I’m not a fan of Ricotta cheese, so I’v never had a real Cannoli. Crazy, I know!

Skinny dipping! That is too funny! I’ll have to give this a try, I love the use of ricotta cheese in a dip. I’ve never had it.
