Cannoli with dark chocolate

Instructions

1. For the pastry: Sift the flour and salt into a bowl and rub in the butter. Stir in the sugar and egg. Add enough wine to make a soft dough. Knead until smooth.
2. On a lightly floured surface roll out the pastry thinly and cut into 16 squares, each measuring roughly 8 cm squares. Dust 4 cannoli moulds with flour and wrap pastry square loosely around each on the diagonal, dampening the edges with the egg white and pressing them together to seal.
3. Heat the oil in a pan and deep fry for 3-4 minutes or until the pastry is golden and crisp. Drain on a plate lined with kitchen paper. When cool enough to handle, carefully twist the metal tubes to pull them out of the pastry. Cook 3 more batches in the same way.
4. For the filling: Mix all the ingredients together.
5. When the pastry tubes are cold, pipe or spoon the filling into them. Dust with icing sugar to serve.
