My Sicilian grandmother used to make chocolate almond, and chocolate hazelnut cannolis (she made others as well). The choconut ones would cause family fights; the men would hog them all and we kids got nuthin; crying then getting spanked. So she started to make a batch for the kids, call us in the kitchen without the men and we'd gorge. Some adult male would wander in a see. She'd say, too bad no more I only made them for the kids., you guys get other flavors.
You have the best food and desserts. Who would have thought chocolate and ricotta goes together so well? Were the chocolate hazelnut ones like nutella?

Yeah but more nutty tasting. She'd turn some of the nuts to butter mix it with dark choco and then put finely chopped hazels in as well; the overall effect was more nuts both in flavor and texture; in my opinion hers was better than Nutella She was a God in the kitchen

You do know that's similar to an old fairly successful pickup line? Me to you: "You look like you have a little Italian in you" You: "no I don't" Me:"Want one?"
I realized my error as soon as I saw @raratt 's reply. :oops: Has anyone ever been successful with those cheesy pick up lines? I've heard a few really bad ones and one good one about my smile but I was drunk and can't remember what it was for the life of me.

Yes it's worked a few times; I married one. It's never worked cold; the girl either already knew me or some time had been spent making her laugh.
