Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 packet (about 2.5 teaspoons) unflavored gelatin powder
- 3 tablespoons cold water
- 1.5 cups low-fat milk
- 1 cup low-fat heavy cream
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 tablespoons sweetener of choice (e.g., stevia, erythritol, or monk fruit)
- 1 cup Weight Watchers Vanilla Mousse (store-bought or homemade)
- 0.5 cup fresh berries (optional, for garnish)
- 4 leaves mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a small bowl, sprinkle the unflavored gelatin powder over the cold water and let it sit for 5 minutes to bloom.
While the gelatin is blooming, heat the low-fat milk and low-fat heavy cream in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir occasionally and heat until just below boiling (do not boil).
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and sweetener until fully dissolved.
Add the bloomed gelatin to the warm milk and cream mixture. Stir well until the gelatin is completely dissolved.
Divide the mixture equally among 4 ramekins or dessert glasses, leaving enough room for the vanilla mousse core later. Allow the panna cotta to cool slightly at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until firmly set.
Once the panna cotta has set, use a small spoon to scoop out a small well in the center of each ramekin. Be careful not to dig too deep, so the panna cotta remains stable.
Fill each well with Weight Watchers Vanilla Mousse, smoothing the top to create an even surface.
Optional: Garnish with fresh berries and mint leaves for a decorative touch.
Serve chilled and enjoy a guilt-free, delectable dessert!
