Playing with a basic recipe for panna cotta, I wanted to make it pink for Valentine's Day. I added raspberries to give a hint of fruit flavor and the raspberries die the dessert pink! If you would like it even more pink, you may add a drop of red food coloring to the mix. This recipe makes 3 teacup size molds or servings. Cooking time is chill time. Hope you enjoy!

Time 3h20m

Yield 3 panna cotta, 3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 cups plain yogurt
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 1/4 teaspoons unflavored gelatin (I use Knox brand)
2 tablespoons cold ice water
2 tablespoons sugar (taste if you want it sweeter)
1 vanilla bean, using the seed paste scraped from the inside of the pod
1 tablespoon raspberries, plus
1 -2 tablespoon raspberries, more for the garnish (thawed frozen ones work best for an easy puree)

Steps:

  • NOTE: You will need a small sieve or strainer.
  • Mix together the yogurt and the buttermilk in a medium bowl.
  • To create the gelatine, put the cold water into a small bowl and sprinkle the gelatine over it. Let that sit for 5 minutes, then put it in the microwave on regular power for 30 seconds.
  • In another little bowl; mix together the sugar and the vanilla bean paste.
  • Using your sieve, mash the 1 TBSP raspberries into the sugar-vanilla bowl to create a puree and keep the seeds out. Mash very hard until all of the raspberries are pureed then scrape the bottom of your sieve of any remaining puree.
  • Mix vanilla sugar and raspberry puree together well then pour in (little by little so it is tempered) your gelatine into the mix. Stir to blend.
  • Pour the raspberry mix into the yogurt mix and stir well. Pour the mix into little molds or teacups for a cute presentation.
  • Chill the dishes in the fridge for at least 3 hours or overnight.
  • Serve in cute dishes or you may unmold them by dipping the dishes into hot water for 1 second then invert onto a serving plate.
  • Garnish with the rest of the raspberries.
