PANNA COTTA
Cook with Vittoria and Giulia the Panna Cotta, one of the most traditional Italian desserts.
The Panna cotta is one of the best-known and appreciated desserts in Italy and all over the world for its simplicity and delicate taste, which makes it a perfect cuddle at the end of a meal. Very often this dessert is described as “a white pudding” but, beware, that’s a mistake!

The Ingredients for 4 people are:
- 500 ml or 2 cups and 2 tbsp of heavy cream
