Coffee Panna Cotta

This is very yummy. However, I made some changes and substitutions to the original recipe based on what I had in the house. I also cut the recipe in half so made 4 servings that I put in 6oz yogurt cups. (That is the perfect size serving for me.)

Moisten gelatin in small microwave safe bowl. Microwave 10 second hits, until dissolved. (I originally tried 30 seconds and it blew up in the microwave. Then I had trouble with it being in 1 big lump. You have to kind of sprinkle the gelatin on the water and not dump it in.)
  • 2 T water
  • 1 tsp gelatin
Then blend in small bowl until sugar is dissolved
  • 1/4 c hot water (about 1 minute in microwave)
  • 2 t. instant coffee
  • 2.5 T sugar 
Add dissolved gelatin mixture and stir well so gelatin mixture doesn't stick to bottom of bowl.

Stir in
  • 3/4 c. cashew milk
Pour into four 6oz yogurt cups or other dishes of similar size.
Refrigerate at least 2 hours until it is set.

Chocolate Panna Cotta
I also tried the following variation and it was OK but might want to bump up the gelatin amount a little bit.

Dissolve
  • 1 t gelatin in
  • 2 T water
Add gelatin mixture to
  • 1 c chocolate cashew milk
 Then refridgerate
