E-Z Cannoli Ice Cream

I was looking for a cannoli recipe and came across this yummy recipe. It has all of my favorite things in it. When I first saw the recipe I thought to myself..good thing it calls for fat-free sweetened condensed milk to counteract the cream which makes this yummy dessert virtually fat & calorie free ;)  OK maybe not but it is a nice treat to have for a special occasion.  It does have a bit of a different texture because of the ricotta cheese but it's creamy and yummy.

Ingredients

1 container (15oz) Ricotta Cheese
1 can fat-free sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup cold milk
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1 pt (2 cups) whipping cream
1 cup slivered almonds, toasted
2 oz Baker`s Semi-Sweet Chocolate, chopped

How it`s Made

Place ricotta cheese in blender or food processor container; cover. Blend until smooth. pour into medium bowl. add condensed milk, regular milk and cinnamon; mix well.
Beat whipping cream in large bowl (preferably one that is metal chilled) on high until soft peaks form. Add ricotta cheese mixture, almonds and chocolate; stir gently until well blended. pour into 1-1/2 qt metal bowl; cover.
Freeze at least 4 hours or until firm, stirring once after 2 hours or when edge begins to harden. let stand at room temperature 15 mins or until ice cream can be scooped easily. Store leftover ice cream in covered container in freezer up to 1 week.
