Indulgent Costa Rican-inspired panna cotta dessert with rich flavors of dark brown sugar, rum, coffee, coconut, and bittersweet chocolate - a luscious twist on classic creme brulee.
Ingredients:
  • 2 teaspoons unflavored gelatin
  • 0.25 cup dark rum
  • 1.25 cups whipping cream
  • 0.5 cup dark brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon instant espresso powder
  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 0.75 cup whipping cream
  • 2 tablespoons dark colored corn syrup
  • 8 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon dark rum
  • 8 sprigs fresh mint for garnish
Instructions:
  • Allow the unflavored gelatin to gently cover the surface of the dark rum and rest for 5 minutes to soften.
  • In a saucepan over medium-high heat, combine 1 1/4 cups of whipping cream, brown sugar, and espresso powder. Simmer until brown sugar dissolves, then remove from heat and whisk in gelatin mixture until dissolved.
  • Combine coconut milk, vanilla extract, and sour cream in a bowl and whisk until smooth. Divide the mixture evenly into eight 3/4 cup custard cups or molds. Cover each with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  • In a saucepan over medium-high heat, gently simmer 3/4 cup of whipping cream and corn syrup. Remove from heat once simmering, then stir in the chocolate until smooth and melted, which should take about 2 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon of rum, mix well, and set aside.
  • To serve, gently glide a knife along the edges of each mold, then place each cup in a bowl of hot water for 10 seconds to release. Flip the mold onto a plate, unmold the panna cotta, drizzle with chocolate sauce, and adorn with a fresh mint sprig.
