    I found the best way to scoop out the center of a cupcake is the tool used to juice a whole lemon, they are sometimes given away in a bag of lemons. The end is serrated to cut through the lemon, it cuts through the cupcake perfectly. Perfect just like these cupcakes

    Nice change to the traditional cupcake. I followed the recipe, minus the whipped cream topping. The cupcake was great with just the filling. A ganache topping would probably be devine!

    These cup cakes are amazing. The only thing that I did differently is I used a whip cream stablizer in the whip cream topping.

    I made these cupcakes for my husbands birthday and he said they were the best cupcakes he's ever had! My family loved them too! The cake part has a nice tang due to the sour cream and the filling is delicious!! The only thing I changed was I pipped on chocolate ganache underneath the whipped cream! I will definitely make these again. :o

    this was delicious everyone loved it! my aunt said it was one of the best cupcakes she's ever had! i did use coffee icing. regular coffee made the icing a little too thin, so we used just a little bit of very concentrated instant coffee.

    These were not hard to make at all. I did not use the topping suggested here because when I mixed it, it just did not hold up and I had to trash it. I used a regular icing and flavored it with a hint of coffee. I also added a bit more powered sugar and vanilla to the cannoli filling to give it a sweeter taste because I didn't think it had much of a flavor. They were a huge hit with all of my coworkers and family!! Will definitely be making them again!

    This recipe overall was pretty good. The cake was super moist, but I was not too impressed with the whipping cream. Luckily, the moistness of the cake and the filling redeem this cupcake. Great recipe, just try a different frosting.

    Sweetsismyname...you basically made a cassata cake. These cupcakes are a spin on the cake. Try brushing the cake lightly with a liquer like Amaretto, Frangelico or Strega! Before you add the Ricotta mixture and icing. Delicous!

    Let me begin by saying that I made a cake, and not cupcakes...the first time that I made this recipe, I was unhappy with the outcome of the cake; it tasted just ok, not much flavor. So, the second time I used 3/4 cup of butter instead of the oil and it came out much better. I split the cake and spread the cannoli cream in the middle (minus the choc. chips topping with the whipped cream...served with some strawberries it got rave reviews from our dinner party.
