Categories     dessert

Time 42m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 tablespoons water
1 tablespoon powdered gelatin
4 cups milk
1/2 vanilla bean, split lengthwise
2 tablespoons ground coffee
1/2 cup sugar

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin over the water and let soak about 10 minutes (do not stir). Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, heat the milk, vanilla bean, ground coffee, and sugar to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar. As soon as it simmers, turn off the heat and add the gelatin mixture, stirring to dissolve the gelatin. If the gelatin doesn't completely dissolve in 3 minutes, return the mixture to the heat and warm gently until dissolved. Strain through a fine strainer or chinois. Pour the mixture into 6 to 8 ramekins or dessert cups. Chill, uncovered for 2 hours. Dip the cups in hot water for 10 seconds, then turn the panna cottas out onto dessert plates (or, serve in the cups).

Tips:

  • Strain the panna cotta mixture through a fine-mesh sieve before pouring it into the molds. This will remove any lumps or impurities.
  • Chill the panna cotta for at least 4 hours, or overnight, before serving. This will allow it to set properly.
  • To make the chocolate rum sauce, use a good quality semisweet or bittersweet chocolate. You can also use a combination of dark and milk chocolate.
  • Bring the cream and sugar to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly. Do not boil the cream, as this will cause it to curdle.
  • Remove the cream mixture from the heat and stir in the chocolate until it is melted and smooth.
  • Stir in the rum and vanilla extract. Taste the sauce and adjust the sweetness or rum flavor as desired.
  • Serve the panna cotta with the chocolate rum sauce and garnish with fresh berries or chopped nuts.
