PANNA COTTA

A traditional, easy, and delicious Italian custard. I had a difficult time finding a good and easy recipe on the internet, so I made up my own recipe. It tastes just like the panna cotta served at Italian restaurants. Serve with warm hot fudge sauce and fresh raspberries on top. This keeps well for several days in the refrigerator.

Time 4h15m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 5

⅓ cup skim milk
1 (.25 ounce) envelope unflavored gelatin

Steps:

  • Pour milk into a small bowl, and stir in the gelatin powder. Set aside.

Pour the gelatin and milk into the cream, stirring until completely dissolved. Cook for one minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat, stir in the vanilla and pour into six individual ramekin dishes.

I'm told this dessert tastes just like the Panna Cotta at Macaroni Grill. I saw it prepared this way by Giada De Laurentiis on Everyday Italian. No matter the origin, this Italian "cooked cream" is comfort food at its best.

I got this recipe off the internet, but haven't tried it yet. I thought I'd put it here for safe-keeping and easy access. Prep and cooking time do not include refridgeration time, and is a guesstimate.
