Step 1

Remove the ice cream from freezer and allow to sit at room temperature for about 5-10 minutes or just until softened (this depends on how warm your kitchen is).

Step 2

Use a spoon and scoop ice cream from the container and stuff the cannoli shell (do this from both ends). Do this carefully so the shell doesn't break.

Step 3

Place the stuffed cannoli shells on a baking sheet or plate and place in the freezer for 1 hour.

Step 4

Place the crushed nuts on a small plate or in a small bowl. Dip the ends of the cannoli into the nut topping and place back onto the baking sheet, moving quickly to prevent melting.

Step 5

Place back into the freezer for at least one hour or until ready to serve. Drizzle with caramel topping just before serving (optional). Enjoy!
