Cannoli Pie

I got this recipe from Mr. Food on ABC 7 Chicago. It is super easy to make and is a great addition to a summer party.

1 container (15oz.) ricotta cheese
1 C. confectioners' sugar
1/4 C chopped maraschino cherries
1/4 C. chopped blanched almonds
1/4 C. miniature chocolate chips
1 9-in. chocolate graham cracker pie crust

In a large bowl, combine the ricotta cheese and confectioners' sugar; mix until smooth and well combined. Stir in the cherries, almonds and chocolate chips. Spoon into pie crust, cover and freeze for at least 3 hours. Remove from the freezer and allow to sit for at least 10 to 15 minutes before cutting. Cover and store any leftovers in the freezer.
