Lemon Meringue Pie Cannoli Recipes

Here’s a dessert mashup that combines the taste of Lemon Meringue Pie with the look of a Cannoli. With each bite of a Lemon Meringue Pie Cannoli you’ll enjoy the crispy crunch of flaky pie crust and a pop of tart lemon flavor balanced with the sweetness of marshmallow and cream.

It is so fun creating new twists on classic desserts and these treats combine one of my favorites with one of my husband’s favorites.

I’ll never forget the feeling I had biting into a cannoli for the first time. I was in my twenties working at an advertising agency just out of college and a coworker brought in a dessert that I had never seen before. When she told me they were made of ricotta cheese, I was very hesitant to take a bite. I couldn’t imagine how they could taste sweet.

I sat and watched my coworkers bite into the crispy shells with delight. They devoured them with such gusto that I just had to try one.
