Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat cream, milk, and sugar in a saucepan over medium until steam rises, about 3 minutes. Don't boil.

  2. Step 2

    Remove from heat. Sprinkle gelatin over the surface, let sit 30 seconds to bloom, then whisk until completely dissolved.

  3. Step 3

    Stir in vanilla extract. Pour into serving glasses or small bowls, dividing evenly.

  4. Step 4

    Refrigerate for at least 10 minutes while you make the sauce. Panna cotta will firm up but won't be fully set.

  5. Step 5

    Heat berries and honey in a small saucepan over medium until berries break down and sauce thickens, about 5 minutes.

  6. Step 6

    Spoon warm berry sauce over each panna cotta and serve immediately. Sauce will pool around the edges.
