Ingredients

Panna Cotta

  • 100 ml Baileys Irish Cream
  • 350 ml heavy cream
  • 60 g castor sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1¼ teaspoon powdered gelatine
  • 40 ml cold water

Caramel Chocolate Sauce

  • 60 ml evaporated milk
  • 140 g caramel chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Prepare Gelatine: Sprinkle the powdered gelatine over the cold water in a small bowl and let it bloom for about 5 minutes until it softens and swells.
  2. Heat Cream Mixture: In a saucepan, combine the heavy cream, castor sugar, and vanilla extract. Heat gently over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar dissolves and the cream mixture is hot but not boiling.
  3. Dissolve Gelatine: Remove the cream mixture from the heat. Stir in the bloomed gelatine until it completely dissolves into the warm cream.
  4. Add Baileys: Pour in the Baileys Irish Cream and mix well to combine all ingredients evenly.
  5. Pour & Chill: Pour the mixture into serving glasses or molds. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, until the panna cotta is set.
  6. Make Caramel Chocolate Sauce: In a small saucepan, gently heat the evaporated milk until warm. Remove from heat and add the caramel chocolate chips, stirring continuously until a smooth, glossy sauce forms.
  7. Serve: Once the panna cotta has set, pour the caramel chocolate sauce over the top just before serving for a decadent finish.

Notes

  • Ensure the cream mixture does not boil to prevent curdling.
  • You can substitute the Baileys with other flavored liqueurs to alter the taste.
  • Gelatine quantity is crucial for the perfect set; do not reduce or skip.
  • For a firmer set, increase gelatine by ¼ teaspoon.
  • Caramel chocolate sauce can be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator; reheat gently before serving.
  • Use good quality Baileys for the best flavor integration.
