PANNA COTTA WITH FRESH BERRIES AND CHOCOLATE SAUCE
This is one of my favorite desserts, especially to serve to guests. It's fast, easy, and it requires chill time, which makes it perfect for advance preparation. I guess panna cotta isn't the most common dessert, because, despite its simplicity, I get raves and quizzes over the ingredients every time. The panna cotta recipe is courtesy of Giada De Laurentiis, from Food Network's "Everyday Italian," and the chocolate sauce comes from Tyler Florence's "Food 911." The sauce recipe makes quite a bit - you'll have some leftover - but I don't cut it because I like to have it the day after with the leftover berries.:) Cooking time is chill time.

WHITE CHOCOLATE PANNA COTTA WITH DARK CHOCOLATE SAUCE
Delicate & cool with two kinds of chocolate for an easy but elegant & satisfying dessert. From those talented folks at Southern Living. Panna cotta needs to chill 24 hours before serving. I like to make in ramekins & invert the panna cotta onto serving plates in puddle of warm dark chocolate sauce. Make the dark chocolate sauce shortly before serving & drizzle it on the cold panna cottas immediately before serving. Garnish with mint sprigs if you want to gild the lily.

Add the remaining milk and whisk until completely combined and smooth. Add the cream and whisk until combined; let stand until room temperature.
