   1. Combine flour, salt, baking powder, 1 egg, sugar, & butter; mix
   well.
   2. Gradually add enough wine to make a firm dough. Knead until smooth
   & elastic. Roll into very thin sheets; cut into 12 squares.
   3. Place metal cannoli tubes diagonally onto each square so tube
   divides each square into 2 triangles. Lay points of triangles over
   tubes so they meet in middle. Separate remaining egg & use a little
   of the egg white to moisten overlap. Press gently to seal.
   4. Heat 3-4 inches deep olive oil in deep pan. Fry cannoli until
   golden brown, drain well on paper towels, & cool. Remove metal tubes.
   5. Combine remaining part of egg with ricottta cheese, orange flower
   water, candied orange, & chocolate & blend well. Fill cannoli with
   cheese mixture. Sprinkle with confectioner’s sugar.
