oooh i looooove canolis!!
right now i am on a kick - chocolate graham crackers, made into sandwiches, with light whipped cream, and frozen. about 85 calories each and SOOOO good!
they taste like a combination of oreos and ice cream sandwiches.
i plan to keep a stock of them in the freezer for this summer when all the neighborhood kids are swarming the ice cream truck. we don't do the ice cream man. i will offer my son these instead. we are all in love with them.
i have been wishing i could take them to a party and share their wonderful (low-cal!) goodness.....but being frozen i don't think it's really that feasible.
i'm not a huge baker, stick to the basics (cookies or cakes for the family on the weekend) but i made this AMAZING mint oreo cake for my mom's birthday last year. it was two chocolate cakes stacked, with cream cheese mint oreo icing - YUUUUUM! it was really to die for. probably my favorite that i've ever made.
i guess we have a thing for the oreos ;)
good question! :)
