Ingredients

For the Panna Cotta:

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup canned full-fat coconut milk

⅓ cup granulated sugar

1 ½ tsp powdered gelatin

2 tbsp fresh key lime juice

1 tsp key lime zest

½ tsp vanilla extract

2 tbsp cold water

For the Topping:

½ cup toasted coconut flakes

Key lime zest for garnish

Whipped cream (optional)

Instructions

1. Bloom the Gelatin

Sprinkle the gelatin over cold water in a small bowl and let it sit for 5 minutes to soften.

2. Make the Creamy Base

In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream, coconut milk, sugar, and vanilla extract over medium heat. Stir gently until the sugar dissolves, ensuring the mixture doesn’t boil.

Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the bloomed gelatin until it fully dissolves.

Add the key lime juice and zest, whisking lightly to blend the flavors.

3. Set the Panna Cotta

Pour the mixture through a fine mesh sieve to ensure a smooth texture.

Divide evenly into ramekins, glasses, or serving dishes.

Refrigerate for 4-6 hours, or until fully set.

4. Garnish & Serve

Once firm, sprinkle toasted coconut flakes on top, add a little key lime zest, and finish with a dollop of whipped cream if desired.

Serve chilled and savor the tropical flavors!

Enjoy this refreshing and indulgent dessert that’s sure to impress!
