Panna Cotta

The February 2011 Daring Bakers’ challenge was hosted by Mallory from A Sofa in the Kitchen. She chose to challenge everyone to make Panna Cotta from a Giada De Laurentiis recipe and Nestle Florentine Cookies.

I didn't make the florentines. Not yet. But I did make the panna cotta because I love panna cotta. So I made two versions:


The first was a classic vanilla panna cotta with strawberries macerated in honey and orange.

The texture was firm but soft, with a nice creamy finish.

The second one I made was a saffron-cardamom panna cotta...

With an apple-raspberry puree.

Another creamy, dreamy Valentine's Day treat.
