Lavender and Mint Pannacotta

I had this once in a restaurant and fell in love with it, i finally found a recipe and it turned out great! very simple to prepare, the tough bit is to wait for it to set!!

• Ready In: 5 hrs
• Serves: 4

Ingredients

• 1⁄8 cup cold water
• 1 1⁄4 teaspoons gelatin
• 1 1⁄2 cups heavy cream
• 1⁄3 cup sugar
• 1  teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1⁄2 teaspoon dried lavender blossoms (ensure no pesticide has been used, health food shops are quite good)
• 1⁄4 teaspoon  peppermint extract (finely chop fresh mint could possibly be used instead)

Directions

1. Stir the gelatin into the 1/8 cup of cold water in a small heat resistant dish and allow to sit for 15 minutes. Take the dish and place it into a saucepan with 1" of water and bring the water to a boil. Stir until the gelatin dissolves.
2. In another saucepan heat cream and sugar together, stirring constantly, until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and stir in gelatin, vanilla, lavender and peppermint extract. Pour into 4 small ramekins, tea cups, or any small dish. Refrigerate for at least 5 hours.
