Pistachio and Cherry Cannoli Cups #SundaySupper

April 14, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 86 Comments

Hi Everyone,

Today is a fun day at #SundaySupper!  Our mission this week was to make something movie related.   Hmmm, I had a hard time with this one because there are some great movies that is related to food!  After asking around, my Husbands friend said how about the Godfather.  The Godfather!  A classic movie!  I love mafia type movies and I haven’t seen the Godfather in so long and I own the box set.  I remember years ago my Husband and I watched almost all of them on a Saturday!  Yes, I spent a Saturday snuggled on my couch watching the Godfather!  Crazy, but true!

Pistachio and Cherry Cannoli Cups

So what does one make from the Godfather?  First thing that comes to mine is Italian food, you know things like pasta and pizza.  But nah, that is to traditional and with a classic movie like the Godfather, I needed something special, but what?  Remember the famous scene Leave the gun Take the cannoli?  Such a great and ever so popular scene!  Did you know that scene was a mistake it, was supposed to be take the gun and leave the Cannoli, but the blunder made it famous!  lol  So with that the Pistachio and Cherry Cannoli was made!

Pistachio and Cherry Cannoli Cups


My cannoli’s are a little different from the standard cannoli’s for many reasons.  The main reason was I wanted a lower calorie cannoli so I can enjoy it without guilt, second was I didn’t have cannoli tube to wrap around the pastry and three I wanted something easy, so you can make these too!!  So I decided instead of a pastry shell, I would use Phyllo Dough for the cups, which would make the cannoli’s light and flaky, plus phyllo dough is pretty forgiving if you use it.  I had some tears in the dough, but that is ok, once you push them into a muffin cup, they will bake up nicely.  You don’t even need to make them perfect, once you fill them with the delicious filling, you don’t even notice any mistakes in the dough.

Pistachio and Cherry Cannoli Cups

For the filling, I thought about going traditional and having plain with chocolate chips, but I have been craving pistachios and cherries for some odd reason?  Plus the Godfather is kind of a dark movie and I needed to lighten it up, so I make a pretty pink cannoli because you know you think of pink, when you think of the Godfather!  lol  The filling is so easy to make!  All it is fat-free Ricotta Cheese, Mascarpone Cheese, maraschino cherry juice and sugar.  I topped these little guys with some finely chopped pistachios and a maraschino cherry!  I couldn’t keep these on the plate!  I was getting ready to photograph them and my Husband took one that I plated, sure enough I plated a few more and he ate them too!  He was sitting on the couch saying these are so good!!  I must admit they turned out way better than I ever could have dreamed off!  Flaky dough, rich, creamy, sweet filling with the taste of cherries and almonds.  Oh man, it is good!!!!!!!!!!!

Pistachio and Cherry Cannoli Cups

The filling is just amazing!  I thought it would be gritty but it wasn’t!  I decided to go with fat free Ricotta cheese because I was using full fat Mascarpone Cheese.  Do you want to know a secret?  This is the first time I ever had Mascarpone Cheese!  OH MY GOSH!!!!!!!!!  It was like pure creamy deliciousness!!  I can’t believe I have never had it!  It’s amazing cheese!  I thought it would be like cream cheese, but it’s not!  It’s so good and so much better!  But due to the fat and calories I only went with 8 tablespoons of it!  If you feel like splurging use 16 tablespoons.  It’s so good!!  Oh and if your feeling a little lazy and don’t want to make the Phyllo Dough Cups, just make the filling!!!  You can dip cinnamon pita chips in it, apples or fill little glasses with it and serve it as dessert, maybe tuck a cookie in it make it look pretty.  I had fun making, testing and tasting the filling, I kept eating it!  he he

Pistachio and Cherry Cannoli Cups

I wanted to tell you that the calorie count for the Pistachio and Cherry Cannoli Cups are less than I posted.  I had left over phyllo dough, left over nuts and leftover filling, but I would rather be higher on calories then less.  Oh and the cannoli cup including everything only comes in at 130 calories!  Loves it!!  A traditional cannoli has almost 400 calories and is fried!!  To much for me!!  So I am happy to bring this recipe to you!  I guarantee know on will know it’s low-calorie.  My Husband had no clue and he is a picky dessert person and he couldn’t keep his hands off of them.

If you do decide to make them, don’t fill your cannoli cups until your ready to serve.  Other wise the cups will get soggy.  You can also make this ahead of time.  Make the filling and store in the refrigerator and the cups, can be stored in a sealed tight container at room temperature, but in my opinion the cups are best the first day you make them.

    Good thinking, Jennifer. Phyllo dough is a wonderful way to encase the yummy combo of cheeses in your filling.

    Thank you for sharing the tidbit about the serendipitous now famous line about the gun and cannoli.

    So cute…love pistachio and cherry! If you’re a lazy baker like me, they make frozen mini phyllo shells. I buy them in the freezer section and use them for appetizers and bite-sized desserts. They work perfect…all you do is thaw ’em out and fill!

    I have seen all the godfather movie a few times but I think so I need to watch them again soon because I don’t remember the part with the cannoli. So maybe when I watch the godfather I should have your pistachio cherry cannoli cups around. It’s going to be awesome! Thanks for the share. 😉

    Love the idea of these cannoli cups! I’ve always loved cannoli but the fried pastry and calorie-laden filling have put me off in recent years (argh, why can’t I keep my teenage metabolism?!). I’m definitely going to try your version – the cherry and pistachio flavours are a match made in heaven! Thanks for sharing… and I love this Sunday Supper idea. This is the first that I’ve heard of it… can’t wait to look through the other posts! xx

I thought I would share with you the little corner in my dining room that I decorated for the 4th of July. If you do not have any patriotic decor, all you have to do is add a flag to it. 
🇺🇸
Do you have any plans for this holiday weekend?

Happy Wednesday! I don’t know about you, but we Happy Wednesday! I don’t know about you, but we never eat our meals at the dining room table. We always eat at the kitchen counter. It’s convenient, easy to clean and it’s close to the food. Plus as a bonus, we get a nice view of the backyard.
💕
Just because you eat at the counter doesn’t mean you can’t create a pretty place setting. I like creating a place setting for my husband and I. It makes for a lovely meal and feels a little fancier.
💕
I was gifted this gorgeous flatware from @inoxartisans. This is the Chantilly Flatware 5 piece set. It’s handcrafted with 18/8 stainless steel. It has a nice weight to it, well made and it’s comfortable in your hand. The flatware is also dishwasher safe. 
💕
You can dress up the Chantilly Flatware with an elegant meal or use it for a more casual meal. If you are looking for new flatware INOX Artisans has a wide variety of styles that comes in gold, copper and silver.
💕
Do you eat at the dining room table or do you prefer the kitchen counter?

Happy Tuesday! I was outside early evening yesterd Happy Tuesday! I was outside early evening yesterday taking pictures of flowers and I felt a shadow flying around me. I looked up and there a Monarch butterfly. 
🦋
I don’t see Monarchs very much, I was delighted when I saw this orange beauty flying around. It landed on a Zinnia before it took a rest on my Butterfly Bush. Isn’t it beautiful? It made my day. It’s the small things.
🦋
I highly recommend a Butterfly Bush in your garden. The flowers come in a range of colors from white, pink to purples. They do well in zones 5-9. The flowers smell amazing and bloom all season. They are also a great butterfly attractor and fairly easy to grow.

Do you get butterflies in your garden?

🌸
I’m still working in my dining room and I wanted to share my new reversible sign that I got from @krumpetshomedecor. It’s a beautiful 24x9 sign that I thought it would be perfect in my dining room. 
🌸
I love sitting around the table with friends and family and tell stories, laugh, play games and have a good time. I thought the side of the sign that says “Enjoy Every Moment” was perfect.

The sign is the Krumpets Home Decor deal of the week and you get an additional 10% off with code: PBANDP. Link in my bio.

Happy Thursday! Last week I cleaned my bedroom and Happy Thursday! Last week I cleaned my bedroom and boy does it feel so nice to have a clean room.
💕
One of the things I added was my new bedding that I got from @lushdecorhome. Let me tell you, it is so luxurious. This is the 3 piece Belgian Flax Linen Rich Cotton Blend Bedspread. It is so soft and gets softer with each wash. 
💕
I have a tall bed and the ruffles just reaches the floor. The bedding is filled with cotton that gives the bedspread such a comfy feel. The bedspread is perfect for the summer, as it is lightweight, but warm enough to keep you cozy in the winter. The set comes with two pillow shams and the bedspread. It also comes in 4 colors. 
💕
I love my new bedding, it’s so feminine and simply beautiful. I couldn’t be happier. Swipe the photo to see how happy Sully is on the bedding.

Happy Wednesday! Hope your week is going well. I’m so happy it’s half way over. It’s been so busy and yesterday I didn’t feel good. I had Chipotle for lunch and it didn’t agree with my stomach. Ugh!

I updated my little corner by adding some pops of yellow. I just love adding yellow and I love adding lemons. Speaking of lemons, how cute is my little “Hello Sunshine” pillow is from @krumpetshomedecor.

Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime ta Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime tablescape with @JCPenney + #AllAtJCP + #sponsored +#ShoppingIsBack but you know how I love still photos better. I think you can really see the details of the decor.

💛

I am loving how simple, fresh and light my tablescape feels. It’s the perfect look I was going for. When the idea came for creating a tablescape, I was unclear of what direction I was going for until I shopped at JCPenney. I walked around the decor department and was completely inspired. They had so many styles and colors that would inspire you too.

💛

I saved a highlight of my shopping trip to JCPenney. You must check it out. I’ll be honest, I was blown away by the styles, quality and prices of there store. I will be shopping there quite frequently and you know I will take you along my journey.

💛

What is the style of your home?

💛

PS. Everything on my table is from JCPenney and it is the Linden Street Collection.

Happy Thursday! This week is just flying by, which Happy Thursday! This week is just flying by, which is okay by me. Yesterday I worked on my bedroom and it feels so good having a clean bedroom. It was a chore that I needed to get done.
🐾
My inspiration was my new pillows that I got from @downlitebedding. The name of the pillow says it all “Ahhhhhmazing™ down alternative pillow” and they are amazing.
🐾
The pillows are so soft, plush and are hypoallergenic. They are easily molded so you position your neck, head and arms. The pillows are also washable and OEKO-TEX® Certified Textiles Are Certified Free Of Harmful Chemicals. 
🐾
I’ll be honest, Downlite Bedding are the only pillows that I sleep with. They are fabulous and will last for years. I highly recommend them. They won’t disappoint you. Downlite Bedding was nice enough to give my followers a 20% off discount code to there shop: DYGEN20.

Do you sleep in your stomach, back or side?

Hello! I have to tell you that I love summer. It’s my favorite season. I love the sun, hot weather, shirts and flip flops. I could just spend all day outside.
🌻
One of my favorite things to do in the summer besides gardening is going to the Farmers Market. There is something about the atmosphere with people walking around with bags in hand, the smell of kettle corn and everyone is so happy. 
🌻
Besides the atmosphere, you can’t beat the freshly grown produce. It’s mind blowing how different it tastes, then what you get in the store. You almost forget what a strawberry is suppose to taste like until have it at the Farmers Market. Plus you are supporting your community. It’s a good feeling all around. 
🌻
I highly recommend going to the Farmers Market and pick up so corn. Soooooo good!! Stock up on your fruits and veggies and freeze it for winter.

What’s your favorite thing to do in the summer?
