Panna cotta is an Italian dessert made from heavy cream that is usually served with fresh berries, caramel topping, or chocolate sauce. We substituted fat-free half-and-half and fat-free sweetened condensed milk for the heavy cream and added a little white chocolate for flavor. Since this impressive dessert needs to chill at least 8 hours before serving, plan to make it ahead, and store it in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
Ingredients
- 1 envelope unflavored gelatin
- 2 cups fat-free half-and-half, divided
- 3 ounces white chocolate, chopped
- 1 cup fat-free sweetened condensed milk
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- Raspberries (optional)
- Mint sprigs (optional)
How to Make It
- Sprinkle gelatin over 1 cup half-and-half in a small saucepan; let stand 1 to 2 minutes. Cook, stirring constantly, over medium heat 3 minutes or until gelatin dissolves; remove from heat. Add chocolate, stirring until chocolate melts.
- Gradually stir in remaining 1 cup half-and-half, condensed milk, and vanilla. Pour ½ cup custard into each of 6 stemmed glasses or 6-ounce custard cups. Cover and chill 8 hours or until ready to serve. Serve with fresh berries and garnish with mint, if desired.
