Fresh manicotti is a very special treat. Start with a 2 egg recipe of Pasta Dough, roll out the dough and cut it into twelve 5-inch squares, cook in boiling salted water for exactly 4 minutes, and then immerse the pasta squares in an ice bath. The squares will expand, so trim to 7-inch squares if necessary. Fill each square with one-third cup of the ricotta cheese filling. Roll and place in a casserole seam side down.
