Panna cotta is one of the easiest desserts to make, but you wouldn't know by how elegant it sounds (and tastes!). We took it a step further by making a layered panna cotta with two flavors and a fancy design.

Steps:
- Make the panna cotta layer: Add the water to a small bowl. Sprinkle the gelatin on top. Let the gelatin absorb the water and dissolve, about 5 minutes.
- In a small saucepan, combine half and half and sugar. Cook over medium heat until just under a boil, about 5 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the bloomed gelatin until fully dissolved.
- Strain the panna cotta mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a spouted glass measuring cup, Let cool slightly.
- While the panna cotta cools, set 4 tempered glass serving cups at an angle in a baking dish or tray, using rolled kitchen towels to keep in place.
- Divide the panna cotta mixture between the cups. Let come to room temperature, then transfer to the refrigerator and chill for 2-4 hours, or until the cream is firm.
- Meanwhile, make the strawberry layer: Add the strawberries, sugar, and water to a large pan over medium heat. Cook until the liquid starts to bubble and the strawberries begin to break down, 5-7 minutes.
- Transfer to a blender and purée until smooth.
- Return to the pan over medium heat until just under a boil, about 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, add 2 tablespoons of water to a small bowl. Sprinkle the gelatin on top. Let the gelatin absorb the water and dissolve, about 5 minutes.
- Remove the strawberry mixture from heat and stir in the bloomed gelatin until fully dissolved.
- Strain the strawberry mixture through a fine-mesh sieve set over a medium bowl. Let cool.
- Transfer to a spouted glass measuring cup. Set the cups with the panna cotta mixture on a flat surface and evenly fill with the strawberry mixture.
- Return the cups to the refrigerator and chill for 2-4 hours, or until the strawberry layer is firm.
- Garnish with mint sprigs, if desired, then serve.
- Enjoy!
