---FOR DOUGH

1 1/3 cups flour

1 tablespoons butter

1 dash salt

1 tablespoons marsala wine

1/2 teaspoon sugar

1 large egg white -- beaten

1 tablespoons grated orange or lemon rind

2 tablespoons miniature chocolate bits or shaved semi-sweet chocolate

2 tablespoons sugar
 

Preparation / Directions:


Combine flour, salt, sugar, citrus rind and butter and blend well. Add Marsala by the teaspoonful until dough is stiff. Chill for 2 hours. Roll dough on a lightly-floured board into a large rectangle. Cut into 4" squares. Wrap squares around cannoli tubes so that 2 corners fold over and two corners point outward. Brush the touching corners with egg white so that they will stick together. Deep fry in hot oil until golden. Cool and remove from tubes. Fill. Makes 10 to 12 cannoli. If you don't have cannoli tubes, make 2" diameter tubes out of heavy-duty aluminum foil and fold dough accordingly. FILLING: Combine all ingredients and fill the cannol
