ALMOND PANNA COTTA LYCHEE DESSERT RECIPES

Steps:

• Pour 1/3 cup almond milk into a small bowl and stir in gelatin; set aside.
• In a medium saucepan, stir together heavy cream, remaining almond milk, and sugar. Bring to boil over medium heat, watching carefully as the cream will quickly rise to the top of the pan.
• Pour gelatin and almond milk into cream mixture and stir until gelatin is completely dissolved. Add 1/2 teaspoon almond extract and vanilla extract and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and pour into 6 (4-ounce) individual ramekins.
• Leave ramekins uncovered at room temperature to cool. When cool, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours (can be left overnight.)
• To remove, run a knife around the sides of each ramekin and invert over a serving plate.
• In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup chocolate fudge syrup with 1/4 teaspoon almond extract. Drizzle over the top of the panna cottas to decorate top, as desired.

Steps:

• Prepare Almond Panna Cotta: In a small saucepan, sprinkle gelatin over the cold water. Let stand for 3 minutes to soften. Cook and stir over medium heat until gelatin is dissolved. Stir in milk, 3 tablespoons sugar and the salt. Cook and stir just until milk is heated through and sugar is dissolved. Stir in amaretto or almond extract. Pour into four 6-ounce custard cups. Cover with foil or plastic wrap and chill about 8 hours or until firm.
• Prepare Blueberry Sauce: In another small saucepan, combine blueberries, orange juice, 1 tablespoon sugar, and the cornstarch. Cook and stir over medium heat until slightly thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir for 2 minutes more. Stir in vanilla. Transfer to a small bowl. Cover with foil or plastic wrap and chill until ready to serve.
• To serve, run a thin knife around the edge of each panna cotta; unmold onto individual plates; top with sauce.
