Cannoli Dip


                  Hello my friends....Today is my 2 year blogging anniversary. It seems like
           only yesterday that I wrote my first post. I remember the feeling I had the moment I
            clicked publish. Back then only my close friends and family looked at it. I never in
                    my wildest would of ever thought that my blog would be what it is today.
             I want to thank each and everyone of you for stopping by my page. You have truly
                       made my world a better place. Cheers, to many more yummy years.

             This recipe is down right delightful. I ate it for dinner one night with my favorite
                    ladies. It's perfect for a quick get together or a nice hot Summer day.
                            You can mix and match any fruit, cookies and cakes.

                                                                  Cannoli Dip

                                                       2 1/2 cups of ricotta cheese
                                             1 8 ounce package cream cheese, softened
                                                2 tablespoons coffee, room temperature
                                                            1 tablespoon vanilla
                                                      1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
                                                     1 cup of mini chocolate chips

                       1) Beat ricotta and cream cheese until smooth. Add sugar and mix until
                              well blended. Add coffee and vanilla. Mix and serve in bowl.

              I served this with fresh strawberries, pineapple, lady fingers and vanilla wafers.
