COCONUT PANNA COTTA WITH CANDIED PEANUTS

Steps:

• Brush eight 4-ounce ramekins with oil. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.

• Heat the coconut milk, heavy cream, 1/2 cup of the sugar and a pinch of salt in a small saucepan until hot but not simmering. Stir in the gelatin until dissolved. Divide the panna cotta among the prepared ramekins. Cover and refrigerate until set, at least 4 hours.
• Meanwhile, mix the remaining 1/3 cup sugar with 3 to 4 teaspoons water (until the consistency of wet sand) in a heavy skillet. Set over medium heat and cook, swirling the skillet occasionally for even browning (do not stir the mixture), about 10 minutes. When the sugar is a deep caramel color, remove from the heat, stir in the peanuts and immediately pour onto the prepared baking sheet. Let cool completely.
• When ready to serve, run a sharp knife around the edge of the ramekins, then invert the panna cottas onto serving plates. Coarsely chop the peanut brittle and sprinkle it on top of the panna cottas.

Set into the bowl of water to cool, stirring every few minutes with a rubber spatula until the mixture starts to thicken (watch carefully). NOTE: If the mixture starts to set, remove it immediately.
• Remove the bowl of coconut mixture from the bowl of water. Empty out the water and wipe the bowl dry. In the dry bowl, stir the chilled heavy cream and confectioner's sugar until the sugar is dissolved. Stir into the coconut mixture.
