How to make Weight Watchers Chocolate Chip Cookie Cannolis:
- First, take your ricotta cheese and place in in a cheese cloth in a strainer over a bowl and let any excess liquids drain for an hour in the refrigerator.
- While that is straining, place remaining ingredients (besides the cookies) in a mixing bowl and blend.
- Place mixture in a bag with the tip cut to allow you to pipe it into your soon to be pizzelle cannolis.
- Microwave each pizzelle cookie individually for about 20 seconds. You will want to form your cannoli with your fingers as soon as you remove it from the microwave. Let cool. They will hold their new form.
- Fill your cookies with your filling and sprinkle with chocolate. Enjoy
Which WW Program are these points for?
WW has definitely changed from 2020 to now. They went from three to one plan to multiple plans and back to one plan again. So in 2023, we have just plain old “POINTS.”

Question! The recipe calls for 1 cup ricotta at the beginning and then 2 TBSP at the end. Is that accurate? Is it just to be all mixed together? Thanks - anxious to make these, one of my favorite desserts!
