Ingredients

  • ½ cup salted caramel sauce (get my homemade recipe)
  • 1 ½ cups whole milk
  • 2 ½ teaspoon powdered gelatin
  • ⅓ cup caster sugar
  • 1 ½ cups heavy cream (whipping/pouring cream)
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • pinch sea salt

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Start by dividing the salted caramel sauce between four dessert glasses.
  2. Place them in the fridge to chill whilst you make the panna cotta.
  3. Pour the milk into a small saucepan and evenly sprinkle the powdered gelatine over the top.
  4. Set it aside to for 5 minutes.
  5. After 5 minutes place the pan over a very low heat and heat gently for 2 minutes, stirring frequently. The milk shouldn't get hot, just warm to allow the gelatine to melt. You should be able to hold your finger in the milk without it burning.
  6. Take a pinch of the milk and rub it through your fingers to check for any graininess.
  7. Once the gelatine has dissolved add the caster sugar and stir gently over a very low heat until it is dissolved.
  8. Once the sugar has dissolved remove from the heat and stir in the cream, vanilla and salt.
  9. Carefully pour the milk mixture over the cold caramel and place in the fridge to set for 3 hours.
  10. Remove from the fridge for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • You can substitute both the milk and heavy cream for half and half.
