It may look fancy and complex, but this festive, four-ingredient dessert is surprisingly easy to make (and will have everyone coming back for seconds!).

Ingredients
Panna Cotta
- 2 oz cans coconut milk 400 mL each
- ¼ cup sugar
- 1 tsp agar agar powder
- 1 vanilla bean
Berry Topping
- 2 cups strawberries or raspberries fresh or frozen
- 2 Tbsp sugar
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice 15 mL
- ½ cup water 120 mL
Instructions
- Boil: Add 2 14-oz cans coconut milk, ¼ cup sugar, and 1 tsp agar agar powder to a medium saucepan. Cut 1 vanilla bean in half lengthwise, and use the back of your knife to scrape out the seeds. Add the seeds and scraped pod to the mixture.Set over medium/high heat. Bring to a simmer for about 3 minutes, whisking often and watching to ensure it doesn't spill over.
- Cool: Remove vanilla pod from the pot. Pour mixture into 6 individual serving bowls or ramekins (you may choose to lightly grease them if you want to pop the panna cotta out of the bowls for serving). Set in the fridge to cool until set, at least 1 hour.
- Topping: Meanwhile, add 2 cups strawberries or raspberries, 2 Tbsp sugar, 1 Tbsp lemon juice, and ½ cup water to a medium saucepan. Cook, uncovered, over medium heat for 10 to 15 minutes, until the berries have broken down and the mixture has thickened some.
- Serve: Optionally invert the panna cotta onto plates or serve in the bowls/ramekins. Top with berry topping.
Notes
- Berry: Replace the raspberries with your favorite berry and cook the same way.
- Mango: Use 1 cup of mango (fresh or frozen), along with the lemon, sugar listed above (not water). Optionally, puree before cooking for a smoother texture.
- Chocolate: Melt 3 oz (½ cup) dark chocolate, then whisk into the coconut mixture after cooking.
- Lemon: After cooking the coconut mixture, remove from heat and add 3 Tbsp lemon juice and the grated zest from 2 lemons (no vanilla bean).
- Strawberry: You can either do a simple strawberry topping by replacing the raspberries, or incorporate strawberries into the panna cotta itself. For the latter, omit ½ cup of coconut milk. After cooking the coconut mixture, whisk in ½ cup pureed strawberries.
- To make vegetarian panna cotta with cow's milk: Use 2 ½ cups heavy cream, ½ cup milk, and the same sugar, agar, and vanilla amounts as above. Bring the heavy cream to a boil, then add agar agar and boil for 3 minutes. Remove from heat and mix in all remaining ingredients, then pour into ramekins and cool as instructed above!
