Ingredients
* 8 oz fat-free ricotta cheese
* 3 Tbsp McNeil Nutritionals SPLENDA No Calorie Sweetener, or similar product, or to taste
* 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips
* 4 medium whole wheat tortilla(s)
* 5 oz sweetened frozen whole strawberries, partially thawed and pureed (1/2 a 10 oz package), or whole sliced strawberries if you prefer
Directions
1.
* Mix together ricotta cheese, Splenda and almond extract by hand in a large bowl until well-combined and smooth; gently fold in chocolate chips. Chill for at least 2 hours (and up to overnight); drain off any liquid.
2.
* To soften tortillas, wrap them in layers of paper towels and then microwave them on high for 30 seconds.
3.
* Place about 1/4 cup of cheese mixture down the center of each cooled tortilla; fold tortilla over in half (or roll up burrito-style). Drizzle each serving with about 1 1/2 tablespoons of strawberry sauce or top with fresh strawberry slices; serve immediately. Yields 1 cannoli per serving.
