A silky, five-ingredient chocolate panna cotta, set in dariole moulds and whipped up in under eight minutes.
This chocolate panna cotta is whipped up in the Thermomix in under eight minutes from five simple ingredients, sets in the fridge in four hours and makes 10.
How stunning does this look? You would be forgiven for thinking it was complicated, but this is one of the easiest desserts you will ever make. A decadent (but not too rich) chocolate panna cotta, whipped up in under eight minutes from just five simple ingredients you probably already have: cocoa, milk, cream, gelatine and sugar.
The beauty is all in the simplicity, which makes it the perfect last-minute dessert for unexpected guests. And if you are a little more organised than that, it keeps in the fridge for up to five days. Honestly, the hardest part is not eating it while it is setting.
All panna cottas, and this one especially, set perfectly in our naturally non-stick Silicone Dariole Moulds. They slide straight out as cute little chocolate castles, then go straight in the dishwasher. Game changer!
