Chocolate Chip Cannoli Dip

June 18, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 15 Comments

Hi Everyone,

One thing you may or may not know about me is I love to make dips.  I guess you can call me a dipper.  Condiments, dips and spreads are my favorite things.  I’m always looking for new ways to spruce up an old recipe, change up a favorite dish or find something new to dip my fruit, pretzels and the occasional cookie in.  I would share more dip recipes with you, but I figured I should give you a variety of recipes, since not everyone is as crazy for dips as me.  So today, I created a new dip with the left over Ricotta Cheese I had from my Skillet Meat Lasagna.

Chocolate Chip Cannoli Dip

This is my Chocolate Chip Cannoli Dip!  It’s sweet, creamy, chock full of chocolate chips and very closly tastes like chocolate chip cookie dough.  Yes please!   I am so loving this dip!  I kept sneaking little spoonfuls as I was making it, then I grab a strawberry or two to dunk into my dip.  Oh my gosh it’s so good!!

Chocolate Chip Cannoli Dip


But what I like about this dip besides the fabulous taste is that it’s pretty darn healthy, practically no fat and the only sugar in the dish is natural sugar from maple syrup and the mini chocolate chips.   You can feel good about giving it to your kids or keeping it for yourself.  One thing about blogging is trying new things and ricotta cheese is my new thing that I have tried this year.  Yes I have had cheese ravioli’s and lasagna, but honestly I never gave ricotta cheese a second thought until I made my Pistachio and Cherry Cannoli Cups.  After I had that dessert, I was sold on ricotta cheese.  Lucky for me I didn’t use it all in my lasagna, that I had left overs to make today’s recipe.  Yah!

Chocolate Chip Canolli Dip

The dip is a snap to make!  It’s made with of course ricotta cheese, greek yogurt, maple syrup, stevia, a pinch of salt and vanilla extract.  But this wouldn’t be chocolate chip cannoli dip with out the chocolate chips and I used two tablespoons of mini chips.  You have to love the mini chips, they are just so darn cute!!  I kind of have a thing for small things, like little spoons, mini cupcakes and tiny little finger foods.

Chocolate Chip Canolli Dip

One thing I have to tell you, if you get animal crackers, get a good name brand of crackers.  I bought the store brand and oh my gosh my cookies were horrible.  Ok, not horrible, but not the same.  When I bit into one, they were soft, almost like they were stale.  So sad!  So I didn’t eat my animal crackers with my dip, but at least I have a ton of strawberries!!!  I swear if I keep eating strawberries like I do, I’m going to turn into one!

Chocolate Chip Cannoli Dip

Time for me to make lunch and get going to bed!

Have a super fabulous day!

Toodles,

Jennifer

    I really like this recipe. It would make a great dessert with fruits like mango or plums or peaches, too. Your recipes are expanding my horizons and requiring me to think more about what I want to eat. 🙂

    I’m a dip girl too-whether it be sweet or savory. This looks like the perfect dessert dip. I would dip some fresh fruit in it and my kids would love it!

    I love the idea of a dip using ricotta! I’m one of those “weird” people who doesn’t like cream cheese, and so many dips–especially the sweet ones–contain cream cheese. I think that I would go through this pretty quickly–I’m a dipper too 🙂

    This stuff looks so good I would be able to finish the whole bowl by myself… I wouldn’t even dip anything, all I’d need is a spoon 😉

Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is that I love Target. It’s my happy place. I get so excited each season to see all the new things that come out. 
🌿
One thing I always love is there faux vase/pot flowers and plants. They are always so pretty and I want to buy them all. But there a couple of things that stops me. The biggest one is that I have no storage for them. Two, they seemed to have gone up in price. They seemed a little pricy to me. 
🌿
For my arrangement, I used one of my canisters for the bathroom. I used floral foam to stick the stems in and I used the paper towel as a filler because I only had very little bit of moss. If I had more moss and I would probably not use the paper towel. This arrangement cost me $5.99. 
🌿
Tip: If you look at Targets faux foliage stems only, they have a lot that are same of what use in there vases. The one I used was Hearth and Hand and was only $5.99 for a stem. The exact ones they used in there pots.
🌿
Hope you enjoy this as much as I have making it. 
Enjoy your day!

Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep clea Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep cleaning in my kitchen on Monday. I washed the floors, cabinets, counters and decluttered the countertops. It feels so good and everything is so bright and clean. Well….
💖
My husband decided to take vacation days this week, and my kitchen does not look so pretty. He has his 💩 everywhere. So annoying. 
💖
Here’s a little bit of the styling that I did. I will work on the coffee bar this weekend, though I’m running a blank on how to style it. I need some inspiration.
💖
What do you do to get inspiration?

I’m sharing heart shaped cinnamon rolls that I made this weekend. I got the idea to make them from my friend Heidi @eleanorrosehome. She made the most delicious looking cinnamon rolls, that I couldn’t resist to make. So perfect for Valentines Day and sooooo easy! 
❤️
I took a can of Trader Joe’s cinnamon rolls and unraveled them, if that makes sense, and rolled them up like a palmier cookie. So fun! You could add food coloring to the frosting to make it pink and add sprinkles. Super cute! You can follow step by step recipe on Heidi’s Instagram page! 
❤️
Thank you Heidi for sharing the recipe. This was so fun!
❤️
Would you rather get chocolate or flowers for Valentines Day?

I’m sharing with you my corner of my living room. I love how open this space looks. I added greenery to give it a fresh look. I also stuck with mostly natural colors with an exception of some blues to bring my whole living room together.
