Ingredients
Method
Prepare the Gelatin
- In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin over 2 tablespoons of cold water and let it sit for about 5 minutes to soften.
- After 5 minutes, gently heat the gelatin mixture in the microwave for about 10 seconds until it dissolves. Set aside.
Make the Cream Mixture
- In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, and granulated sugar.
- Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is hot but not boiling.
- Remove from heat and stir in the dissolved gelatin and vanilla extract until fully combined.
Set the Panna Cotta
- Pour the cream mixture into individual serving glasses or molds.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set.
Prepare the Topping
- While the panna cotta is setting, prepare the mixed berries. You can lightly mash them or leave them whole, depending on your preference.
Serve
- Once the panna cotta has set, remove from the refrigerator.
- Top with mixed berries just before serving.

Notes
For a flavored panna cotta, consider adding citrus zest or other extracts to the cream mixture. Ensure the panna cotta is fully set before serving for the best texture.
