Chocolate Panna Cotta

  • Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp. cold water

    3 Tsp. powdered gelatine

    500mL (2 cups) skim milk

    3 Tbsp. dutch cocoa powder, sifted

    30g dark chocolate, chopped

    ½ cup EQUAL SPOONFUL

    1 Tsp. vanilla extract

    125g punnet blueberries, to serve

Instructions

  1. Put water in a small bowl and sprinkle over gelatine (see Cook’s Tip). Stir and set aside for 5 minutes.
  2. Put milk, cocoa powder, chocolate and EQUAL in a medium saucepan over a medium heat. Cook, stirring, until sugar dissolves.
  3. Reduce heat to low. Add gelatine mixture to milk mixture and cook, stirring, until gelatine dissolves. Stir in vanilla. Divide mixture between 6 x 125ml (½ cup) moulds or ramekins. Set aside to cool for 30 minutes. Refrigerate for 4 hours or until set.
  4. Dip moulds into hot water to loosen. Turn out onto serving plates. Top with berries and serve.
*CHEF'S TIP: To ensure a smooth and lump-free pannacotta, add the gelatine to the water and not the other way around.
