Ingredients
- 1 cup confectioners' sugar
- 3 cups half-and-half
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup hot water
- 2 (1/4-ounce) packets unflavored powdered gelatin
- Orange Caramel Sauce, recipe follows
Directions
Combine sugar and 1 cup of half-and-half in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, whisking until combined. Add remaining half-and-half, heavy cream, and vanilla and cook for 3 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together hot water and gelatin, whisking until gelatin dissolves. Whisk gelatin mixture into half-and-half mixture until thoroughly combined.
Remove from the heat and pour into ramekins or cupcake tins and chill for at least 2 hours or overnight until set.
Remove panna cotta from refrigerator. Dip the bottoms of the ramekins or cupcake tin into a warm water bath for about 15 seconds. Turn out the panna cotta forms onto serving plates. Top with Orange Caramel Sauce and let run down sides. Serve while sauce is still warm.
