Panna Cotta Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Gelatin

    In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin over the water and let it sit for about 5 minutes to bloom.

  2. 2

    Combine Cream and Sugar

    In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, and cocoa powder. Whisk continuously until the mixture is smooth and the sugar is dissolved, about 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add Gelatin

    Remove the saucepan from heat. Stir in the bloomed gelatin until fully dissolved. Add the vanilla extract and mix well.

  4. 4

    Pour into Molds

    Pour the mixture into individual serving cups or molds. Let cool to room temperature.

  5. 5

    Chill

    Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Once set, remove the panna cotta from the refrigerator, and serve chilled. Optionally, top with chocolate shavings or fresh berries.
