Instructions

Place the chocolate chips in a large metal bowl set over a pot of boiling water (a double-boiler). Allow the chocolate to melt, with minimal stirring, 5 to 7 minutes. Take each cannoli shell and dip each end of the shell in the chocolate. Allow the excess chocolate to drip off and lay the shells out on a sheet tray lined with parchment paper or a wire rack so they don't stick.
