When creating these I wanted to include the traditional flavors of cannoli while adding in a luscious chocolate flavor throughout each layer. I’ve posted these in the a more traditional cannoli version – with a vanilla cupcake and white cannoli filling, which inspired me to try a chocolate version too. Because chocolate makes everything better right? I actually think they are a tie, I like this version and the other equally. Different cupcakes for different moods I guess. Or even better make them both and have one of each flavor :). In the ingredients for this recipe I’ve listed that you could add varying amounts of the cocoa – basically if you are more of a milk chocolate lover go with less, dark chocolate lover go with more. Whatever you do just make them soon. Enjoy!
