CANNOLI CREAM CALZONE WITH HONEY AND ORANGE
A calzone has many of the perks of pizza. Easy and crowd pleasing, it's a good vehicle for using up odds and ends in the fridge. Taking a cue from Lucali's Nutella-drizzled calzone, I attempted my own dessert version. I mixed honey, cinnamon and orange zest into ricotta before filling the pizza dough (the same one used for a savory calzone), then I dusted the top with powdered sugar after baking. A sprinkle of sea salt lent a savory contrast to this most sweet endeavor.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 500 degrees. Lightly oil a baking sheet.
- In a small bowl, stir together the ricotta, honey, orange zest and cinnamon.
- Lightly flour a work surface, and stretch or roll each piece of dough into a 6-inch round. Spread half the ricotta mixture on one side of each round, leaving a half-inch border. Brush the edges of one dough round with water, and fold dough in half, over filling; pinch the edges of the dough together to seal. Repeat with second dough round.
- Transfer calzones to baking sheet. Brush the tops with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt. Bake until crusts are golden brown and firm, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar and drizzle with additional honey before serving.
