Pick up some Lotus spread, Rice Krispies, cannolis, and ice cream and get this dessert into your freezer.
The majority of the recipes we share on BCP are the types that you can clearly say, ‘This is a BCP-style recipe.” They are easy, with minimal prep, maximum flavor, and are super practical and family-friendly.
So, it wasn’t surprising, that when my daughter called me one day this summer to share a recipe she had tried, she called it “the most perfect “BCP-style” dessert.
- 36 mini cannoli (Chocolate-Lined Rolled Wafers)
- 1 Jar of Lotus Biscoff Biscuit Spread (we used the crunchy one)
- 1 cup Rice Krispies
- 48-56 oz vanilla ice cream, semi-defrosted
- Melt the full jar of lotus in the microwave (remove the foil seal before putting into the microwave) for a few seconds or transfer to a pot and melt for 1 minute. Add Rice Krispies and ice cream. Mix to combine.
- Place the entire mixture into a bag. Snip the end off and pipe into cannolis. Freeze until ready to serve. You can also pipe them into mini cups and top with some crushed biscoff cookies.

Where do you store these before serving? Freezer?
Yes! we’ve been making these cannoli’s for quite some years now (with a diff filing though)
Fill them in the container they come in, freeze them in there too. Pull it out a couple of minutes before serving
This filling looks yum! Can’t wait to change up our standard dessert this year!!
What filling did u do?
it’s a parve cheese filling- using Tofutti cream cheese…
Any ideas of what I can serve this with
I’m thinking it would be pretty to serve this with Irish coffee
YES!!!! I will be happy to test this theory.z
Looks yum! What can I use instead of lotus spread?
I love this idea! Simple and yummy!
does the rice crispies get soggy
I’m thinking it would be pretty to serve this with Irish coffee
An idea to save time and limit mess- mix directly in the ziplock bag
Just made them!! So easy
Another idea for melting the lotus. Put on your stove top and put the oven on 350 or higher. The heat escaping from the oven will slowly melt the lotus. Tried and true.
Would this work with peanut butter or something other than lotus?
Thanks in advance.
This recipe looked easy and interesting but the proportions are way off. Using the 48+ ounces of ice cream and the rice krispies and full jar of lotus for 1 package of 18 cannolis leaves you with tons extra ice cream mix. I happened to have 2 packages of the cannolis which I used and I have a full quart container of the ice cream mixture left over. I also sprinkled a few colored sprinkes on top of each cannoli to finish the look off. I will serve the ice cream other times but this recipe would fill at least 4 packages of the cannolis and still have some left over!
I also found that one recipe of the filling was more than enough for 2 packs of cannolis. Since I don’t have a microwave and didn’t want to dirty a pot, I melted the lotus by placing the jar in hot water and leaving it there for a couple of min. Best to use something metal so that it retains the heat and the water stays hot for longer (don’t have to change it as often since it doesn't cool as quickly). Worked great – lotus poured right out.
Where can I buy the cannolis.
What type of containers or other receptacle may I fill the ice cream mixture in? It looks like that in my area the parve Cannoli tubes are not available/readily available. Many thank sin advance for your time and assistance.
How do you recommend plating this for dessert? I’m thinking 2 of them – one leaning on the other. Would that be enough per person? Any ideas for something to drizzle underneath (chocolate syrup?)?
Excellent blog on LOTUS DESSERT CANNOLIS. The dessert looks great and is easy to make. Thank you for sharing.
Would this work with pareve ice cream? Which brand would you recommend?
