Cookies & Cream Cannoli Nachos

 The ever so popular Italian cannoli gets a makeover!!!! Cookies & cream cannoli chips are topped with dulce de leche, chocolate sauce, ricotta cream and strawberries to make a shareable dessert for your next get-together.

Forget about the nachos before meal. Lets talk nachos for dessert, shall we?

I’m so excited to bring to y’all a brand new product CANNOLI CHIPS. Golden cannoli company has been making their famous cannoli shells for over 30 years and have now introduced snackable cannoli chips in 3 flavors – powdered sugar, cinnamon sugar and cookies & cream. The company was kind enough to ship me a box of all the three varieties and I must agree that they are highly addictive and my favorite was the plain powdered sugar, my kids couldn’t stop munching:)

The cookies & cream chips are chocolatey crisp chips dusted with powdered sugar and is the perfect base for all the delicious toppings. This recipe does not really need any measurements (except for the ricotta cream). Add in any dessert toppings and fruits that you like and enjoy.

These dessert nachos will be a huge hit at your next party/get-together/hangout and it doesn’t require any prep (almost). Well, you’ve got to make the ricotta cream and that will take you a few seconds and it can be made up to a day ahead and stored in the refrigerator. So, all you have to do is place some cannoli chips, drizzle some dulce de leche, chocolate syrup, ricotta cream and berries and you are sure to impress your guests.
