Cannoli Filling Recipe
I used ricotta cheese, cream cheese, sour cream, and heavy cream as the "cheese stuff" for the cannoli mix. I didn't use exact measurements at the time of making it but this is pretty close. If you find the taste of cream cheese to be overpowering, try adding powder sugar, lemon, or vanilla extract (or a little of all of those things) to see if you can "hide" the cream cheese/sour cream combo. Cream cheese, sour cream, and heavy cream are usually used as a substitute to marscapone which is another cheese that is used as a cannoli filling.
