Peanut Butter Panna Cotta
Panna cotta originates from the Piedmont region of Italy and has evolved over the years with numerous flavor variations. This peanut butter panna cotta is a truly rich and creamy version, combining a smooth texture with the intense, slightly salty-sweet taste of peanut butter. Imagine the silky panna cotta melting in your mouth after just one bite, while the crunchy texture of the toasted hazelnuts provides a perfect contrast to the creamy sweetness. The secret to perfect panna cotta is high-quality peanut butter and a cream mixture with the right consistency. Try this version garnished with a little melted chocolate or honey to make it even more special!

Preparation Steps
1
Soak the gelatin sheets in cold water and let them stand for 5 minutes, or until softened.
2
In a saucepan, combine the heavy cream, milk, sugar, and the seeds scraped from the vanilla bean. Heat over low heat until the sugar is completely dissolved, but do not bring to a boil.
3
Remove from the heat and add the peanut butter. Stir until completely dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
4
Squeeze the excess water from the softened gelatin sheets, then add them to the peanut butter mixture. Stir until completely dissolved.
5
Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any vanilla bean particles, then pour into small molds or glasses.
6
Let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until completely set.
7
Before serving, garnish with toasted hazelnuts and, if desired, a drizzle of melted chocolate or honey for an even richer experience.
