1

Add 1 cup of cold milk into a saucepan.

2

Add 1 tablespoon of powdered gelatin to the milk and stir to mix. Let it sit for 1 minute to hydrate the gelatin.

3

Add 2 cups of heavy cream and 1/3 cup of sugar to the saucepan.

4

Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it is really hot but not boiling.

5

Turn off the heat and add 1.5 teaspoons of vanilla sugar (or vanilla extract) to the mixture.

6

Transfer the mixture into molds, ramekins, or dessert glasses.

7

Let the panna cotta cool to room temperature, then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours to set.

8

To prepare the fruit sauce, combine 2 cups of diced strawberries, 1/4 cup of sugar, and 1/3 cup of water in a saucepan.

9

Heat the fruit mixture on low to medium heat until it thickens to a syrup-like consistency.

10

Once the panna cotta is set, loosen the edges with a spoon and dip the molds in hot water for 3-4 seconds to help unmold.

11

Invert the molds onto plates and shake gently to release the panna cotta. Serve with fresh berries or fruit sauce.
