Cannoli Dip


 I first heard of this recipe from my brother, Denny, who got it from Rick's niece, Barbie. I'm not sure where she got the recipe, but like I always say "Since she's the one who brought it to me, she's the one that gets the credit for it!" As Denny says "She's like the Cuneo Family dip queen. She always has really easy and really good stuff." That works for me!!
 I always love a good party food recipe, and when it's as easy as this one, well, what could be better? Seriously, this is crazy stupid easy. Just stir everything together! What could be easier than that? And it's just as delicious! You might wanna make a double batch because your guests will devour it!
Thanx Den! And Thanx Barb!

2 cups ricotta cheese
8 ounces softened cream cheese
1 1/2 cup 10x powdered sugar (do they still call it 10x?)
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup mini chocolate chips

Mix together and chill (both you and the mixture).
Serve with cannoli chips, broken pizzelles, broken waffle cones, or strawberries.

Tips:
When I first tried it, Aniell and AJ and Kelsie were here for the sampling, and we tried a few different dippers. Our favorite was the cinnamon sugar coated pita chips. The sweet cinnamon made it SO yummy! Oh! And the strawberries were pretty amazing too!

Other dipper options:
Graham crackers broken into sticks.
Fresh pineapple, cut into wedges.
Tortillas, or won ton wrappers, cut into triangles, deep fried and then sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar.
