Panna Cotta (Coffee/Vanilla Flavoured)

"From www.italyum.com: "This is one of the classics amongst the "dolci al cucchiaio" (spoon desserts) and there is not much to say about it, except that it is delicious and very easy to make. There are many versions of panna cotta and the one I am going to present to you is the panna cotta flavoured with coffee and vanilla.""

directions

  • First, soak the gelatine leaves in a small bowl filled with cold water and set aside.
  • Next, pour the cream into a small pan and turn the heat on (gentle heat) add the vanilla powder/extract.
  • Add the sugar, coffee and rum.
  • Stir gently for a few minutes until the cream gets close to the simmer point (avoid boiling the cream).
  • If you have a thermometer, check that the cream reaches 90ºC and, at that point, remove the pan from the heat.
  • Now, squeeze the gelatine leaves and add then to the pan.
  • Stir for a couple of minutes or until the gelatine is completely dissolved and strain the cream into a jug.
  • Now, pour the cream into the glasses (or fill 4 glasses half way) and put the glasses in the fridge for about 4-6 hours so that the panna cotta has time to set.
  • Finally, when you want to eat your panna cotta, I suggest you dust it with some cocoa powder and that's it.
  • Enjoy it!
  • *Note: the sachet I used contained about ½ g of vanilla extract in powder, however you can use vanilla extract in liquid form (just a few drops) or infuse a small vanilla pod.

  1. Yumskis! Made with full fat milk, turned out just as delicioso!
     
  2. Absolutely incredibly delicious!!! It was velvety smooth and the flavor was perfect from the vanilla coffee and rum, yummy. It took a little patience to get mine to unmold, but you could eat it out of the dessert cup too. I couldn't find gelatin leaves or sheets, so I did a lil looking and figured the equivalent to be one envelope of powered unflavored gelatin, and it worked just fine for me. I added the powdered to the hot mixture after it came off the stove, stirred till dissolved, and strained and all like the rest of the recipe. We loved this, thanks so much for sharing! Made for Witchin Kitchen ZWT7!
