HEALTH & BENEFITS

While this dessert is not particularly healthy, it is a fun and unique take on traditional cannoli.
The ricotta cheese used in the recipe is a great source of protein and calcium, but it is also high in fat.
However, the addition of orange rind may provide possible benefits like boosting immune function, improving heart health and reducing the risk of cancer.
