Holy Innocents Panna Cotta

Cook Time20 minutes
Cooling time8 hours
Servings: 12 custards

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp cold water
  • 1 tbsp gelatin powder or one 1 oz packet
  • 2 ½ C heavy cream
  • ½ C whole milk
  • C sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Raspberry Sauce

  • 6 oz raspberries
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • ½ tsp cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp cold water

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, combine the gelatin powder and 2 tablespoons of cold water and set aside.
  • Combine the heavy cream, milk, and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring frequently to avoid a film forming on top.
  • Once the mixture has reached 150℉, add in the gelatin mixture and stir until fully dissolved.
  • Remove the mixture from the heat source and stir in the vanilla extract.
  • Pour the mixture into ramekins or a silicone muffin mold and chill in the refrigerator for 8-24 hours.
  • If you are turning the panna cotta out of a mold, it is easiest to submerge the bottom of the form in a bath of hot water for 10 seconds before inverting to get a clean release from the mold.

Raspberry Sauce

  • To make the raspberry sauce, blend together the raspberries and lemon juice in a blender or using an immersion blender. Strain the sauce to remove the seeds and transfer to a pan to begin heating.
  • Add the sugar to the pan and cook over medium heat while you prepare the cornstarch slurry by whisking together ½ teaspoon cornstarch and 1 tablespoon cold water.
  • Once the mixture reaches 130℉, add the slurry to the sauce and stir until it begins to thicken.
  • Remove the sauce from the heat and allow to cool for 30-60 minutes before pouring over the panna cotta.
