Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 0.25 cups Granulated sugar
• 16 ounces Ricotta cheese, whole milk
• 8 ounces Mascarpone cheese
• 0.75 cups Powdered sugar
• 1.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 cups Mini chocolate chips
• 0.5 cups Heavy cream
• 0.25 cups Pistachios, chopped (optional, for topping)
• 2 tablespoons Extra mini chocolate chips (optional, for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until the mixture resembles wet sand.

Step 3

Press the graham cracker mixture evenly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form the crust. Use the bottom of a measuring cup to press it down firmly.

Step 4

Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, mascarpone cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy.

Step 6

Fold in the mini chocolate chips.

Step 7

In a separate bowl, beat the heavy cream with an electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the ricotta mixture until fully combined.

Step 8

Spoon the filling into the cooled crust, spreading it evenly.

Step 9

Sprinkle chopped pistachios and extra mini chocolate chips on top, if desired.

Step 10

Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until the filling is firm and set.

Step 11

Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy your delicious Easy Cannoli Cheesecake Pie!
