Cafe Latte Panna Cotta

By Texaschef11

Ingredients

• 1 cup strong, brewed coffee
• 2 cups half and half
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 tsp unflavored gelatin

Preparation

Step 1

In a small saucepan, combine sugar and gelatin. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until gelatin has dissolved. Add in half and half (or half milk and half cream), sugar and vanilla. Stirring occasionally to ensure the sugar has dissolved, bring mixture almost to a simmer. Cream will steam, but not bubble.
Strain mixture into a measuring cup or other dish with a spout. Pour into espresso glasses or other 2-oz ramekins and chill until gelatin has set, at least 2 hours.

Makes 12 small servings.
