OTHER DELICIOUS WAYS TO USE THIS MOUSSE:
Filling for Cannoli, Cream Puffs or Crepes: Use it as a filling for Chocolate Covered Cherries Cannoli or Chocolate Covered Cherries Cream Puffs. Use chopped or sliced maraschino cherries to garnish the open ends of the cannoli (pictured). Drizzle chocolate sauce across tops for an extra finishing touch if desired. Whether you make regular size or mini cannoli, they are great “finger food.” They’re a perfect ending for any July 4th party. If your party is inside, you may want to include a glass of chocolate liquor or wine (in the picture).

These cannoli are so good your guests will think the fireworks are partly for the cannoli.
