How to make a beautiful, smooth and creamy Vanilla Panna Cotta. This classic Italian dessert is unbelievably easy to make with just 10 minutes of prep time then it's left to set in the fridge. A stunning make-ahead dessert that will deliver that wow factor!

Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups plus 1 tablespoon heavy cream (double cream) (375ml)
- 1 cup + 1 tablespoon whole milk (250ml)

- 4 teaspoons gelatin powder (12g sachet)
- 3 teaspoons vanilla paste or 1 vanilla bean *see note 1

Instructions
- Put the milk, cream and vanilla in a saucepan and bring to a boil (watch it carefully so it doesn’t over boil). Once boiling turn off the heat.
- Add the sugar and stir until the sugar has dissolved.
- Sprinkle the gelatin powder into the mixture whilst whisking to avoid any lumps forming.
- Pour the mixture into individual moulds or ramekins and leave to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
- Note: A skin can form on the top of the panna cotta from the milk. If this happens you can easily remove it with a spoon while the panna cotta is still liquid (before refridgerating) although it’s entirely optional and doesn’t have to be removed.
- After 30 minutes, refrigerate the panna cottas for at least 4-6 hours or overnight before serving.
How to remove panna cotta from moulds
- Fill a bowl with hot water. Remove the panna cotta from the fridge and place them one at a time into the water for a few seconds.
- Overturn the panna cotta onto a serving plate and gently remove the mould, serve.
Notes
- Note on vanilla - if using vanilla bean paste use the amount stated on the bottle that equals one vanilla bean. We used 15ml which is 3 teaspoons to equal 1 vanilla bean. Alternatively, scrape out the seeds from 1 whole vanilla bean and add that to the milk. Keep the bean for another use or add it to a jar of sugar to create vanilla sugar.
- Storage - the panna cotta will keep well in the fridge for up to 3 days.
