Delicious Panna Cotta Recipe

Another wonderful addition to your Italian dessert recipes collection!

Serves 6

Ingredients

Pour your milk into a small bowl, and then gently sprinkle in the gelatin powder. Set aside and allow to thicken slightly.

In a medium saucepan, over medium heat, stir together the heavy cream and sugar. Bring the pot to a boil, making sure not to let it overflow. Pour the gelatin mixture into the cream, stirring them together until they are completely combined and the gelatin is dissolved. Cook for approximately one minute, stirring constantly. Remove the pan from heat. Stir in the vanilla and then pour the hot mixture into six individual ramekin dishes.

Allow the little ramekins to cool, uncovered, at room temperature. When they are cool, cover each with plastic wrap, and refrigerate overnight before serving.

Before you serve your panna cotta, you may need to loosen the custard from the cups. An easy way to do this is to fill a medium sized bowl with warm water. Dunk the bottoms of each cup in the water and then flip over onto your serving dish.
