In a bowl, combine the ricotta cheese and powdered sugar until you have a silky smooth cream. Tip: If the ricotta is too wet, drain it beforehand to prevent the cream from becoming too liquidy.
Add the Baileys Irish Cream, ground almonds, and vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly to ensure all flavors are evenly distributed. Tip: Use Baileys at room temperature for easier mixing.
Transfer the mixture to a piping bag and chill for at least 15 minutes. Tip: Cold cream is much easier to handle and won't soak the shells.
Fill the cannoli shells with the Baileys and almond cream from both ends. Tip: Fill them just before serving to keep the shells crispy.
Dust the cannoli with powdered sugar and garnish with roughly chopped almonds. Tip: You can lightly toast the almonds beforehand to enhance their flavor.
Serve on an elegant plate, perfect for special occasions or as an exquisite dinner finale. Tip: A small glass of Baileys pairs exceptionally well.
