I love cannolis, second only to Tiramisu. I make a cannoli roll cake and I am not a fan of sweetened condensed milk and using it this way would put my teeth on edge. Cannolis aren't overly sweet but the creamy crunchy texture is over the top. I think that I would use heavy cream with a bit of Gran Manier' (Orange liqueur'). I know that is more fat content but the taste is way better than all of that sugar. The white cake mix, use Dunkin Hienz and make the follow changes (up the eggs by 2 and use the whole egg, use cooled melted butter for the oil and whole milk for the water and add 2 tsp. REAL vanilla extract. Now bake that off and proceed. If you are dead set on your sweetened condensed milk try using 1/2 and adding some pineapple juice to it.1Replies 3
