All of the delicious things about cannoli filling combine in an amazing and easy to make cheeseball! Cannoli Cheeseball with Vanilla Waffers

I love a good cheeseball especially around the holidays. I recently made a few different kinds of cheeseballs. This amazing Cheddar Bacon Pistachio Cheeseball and this Bacon Ranch Cheeseball. They were all savory but I had to make one that was sweet.

So in searching for a yummy and sweet cheeseball I found this Cannoli Cheeseball recipe on the Rachel Ray Show. A cannoli cheeseball!? My favorite part of the cannoli is the creamy and sweet filling inside. I couldn’t wait to try these cheeseball out!

Cannoli Cheeseball with Vanilla Waffers

This cheeseball was so easy to make. It had all of the yummy ingredients that are used in making the filling of a cannoli. Ricotta cheese, powdered sugar, cinnamon, chocolate chips… they all come together quickly in this cheeseball. Because the ricotta cheese creates a softer texture, you have to form it into a ball and wrap it in plastic. After about an hour the cheeseball is set and ready to serve!

The creamy and delicious filling that you love turned into a cheeseball! This is sure to be a huge hit!
