Chocolate Triple Berry Panna Cotta Tart
This Chocolate Triple Berry Panna Cotta Tart is a delicious take on the classic Italian dessert. Panna cotta is Italian for “cooked cream”, a sweetened cream, thickened with gelatin and molded.
To make this tart, start by making and baking the chocolate pie crust. Make the filling by mixing gelatin and water. Heat the mixture gently. Add cream, vanilla and sugar to a medium sized saucepan. Heat until very hot, but not boiling. Remove the saucepan from heat and add the gelatin to the milk mixture. Stir until dissolved and leave to sit for approximately 5-7 minutes. Stir again and cool. Add the panna cotta filling to cooled pie crust . Chill in the refrigerator until firm. I usually leave mine overnight. Serve with fresh berries or berry sauce.
