      Yield: 6 Servings
 
  1 1/2 c  ALL-PURPOSE FLOUR
      1 pn SALT
    1/2 ts BAKING POWDER
      2    EGGS
      4 ts SUGAR

  1. Combine flour, salt, baking powder, 1 egg, sugar, & butter; mix
  well. 2. Gradually add enough wine to make a firm dough. Knead until
  smooth & elastic. Roll into very thin sheets; cut into 12 squares. 3.
  Place metal cannoli tubes diagonally onto each square so tube divides
  each square into 2 triangles. Lay points of triangles over tubes so
  they meet in middle. Separate remaining egg & use a little of the egg
  white to moisten overlap. Press gently to seal. 4. Heat 3-4 inches
  deep olive oil in deep pan. Fry cannoli until golden brown, drain
  well on paper towels, & cool. Remove metal tubes. 5. Combine
  remaining part of egg with ricottta cheese, orange flower water,
  candied orange, & chocolate & blend well. Fill cannoli with cheese
  mixture. Sprinkle with confectioner's sugar.
