Time 5h50m

Yield 6 cone-olis, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/4 cups ricotta cheese
1/4 cup cream cheese, at room temperature
1/3 cup confectioners' sugar, plus more for dusting
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
1 teaspoon orange zest, finely grated
1/3 cup bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
6 sugar ice cream cones
2 tablespoons pistachios, finely chopped

Steps:

  • Put the ricotta in a fine-mesh sieve set over a bowl. Refrigerate 30 minutes to drain.
  • Transfer the ricotta to a large bowl. Add the cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, vanilla and almond extracts, and the orange zest and beat with a mixer until smooth and fluffy, about 1 minute. Fold in 3 Tbsp chopped chocolate.
  • Cover and refrigerate until thick and cold, at least 1 hour.
  • Transfer the ricotta mixture to a resealable plastic bag. Snip off one corner and pipe the mixture into the cones. Gently press the remaining chocolate and the pistachios into the ricotta mixture.
  • Dust the cones with confectioners' sugar.
  • You can fill the cones up to 4 hours in advance, cover and refrigerate, then dust with sugar just before serving.
