Ingredients
- 1 cup whole milk (full fat) 250ml
- 1 cup heavy creamy (double cream UK) 250ml
- ½ cup caster or granulated sugar (95g)
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla bean paste or 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 teaspoons gelatine powder (12g sachet)
- ½ cup Bailey’s Irish cream liqueur (125ml)
- dark chocolate for grating on top (optional)
Instructions
- Put the milk, cream and vanilla in a medium sized pot and bring to a boil. As soon as it starts boiling turn off the heat (don’t leave it unattended or it’ll boil over and overflow).
- Add the sugar and stir until the sugar has completely dissolved. Add the Bailey’s and stir to combine.
- Next, add the gelatin and whisk so there are no lumps, stir until the gelatin has completely dissolved.
- Pour the panna cotta into moulds, ramekins or small serving dishes. Once cool, put them in the fridge for at least 6 hours to set.
How to remove from moulds (if using)
- Fill a large bowl with hot water.
- Dip the moulds into the hot water for 3-4 seconds then invert onto a plate, you’ll hear the panna cotta dislodge. Remove the mould and serve with grated chocolate on top (optional).
- Important - don't dip the panna cotta moulds in water for too long or the panna cotta will start to melt. A few seconds is all you need.

Notes
- Read gelatine instructions - make sure to read your packet instructions before using. Some gelatine brands tell you to bloom the gelatine in a little water before using. The gelatine we used can be sprinkled straight into the liquid.
- Moulds vs serving dishes - you can pour the panna cotta into serving dishes like the ones we used (see photos), ramekins or pour them into moulds.
- To make in advance - You can make the panna cotta the night before or up to 2-3 days in advance, keep stored in the fridge.
