Panna cotta is a well known Italian dessert, but it's also one of the easiest dessert to prepare. You heat the cream, sugar and vanilla, stir in the gelatine and refrigerate to set. This is one of those desserts that tastes extremely bland by itself. After all, it is a dessert of just cream and sugar. It needs an flavouring partner, normally, a compote made of berries or fruit puree like mangoes.
Ingredients :
- Heavy whipping cream - 2 1/4 cups (540 ml)
