How to Make Espresso Marbled Panna Cotta
- **Make the Espresso Syrup:** In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup strong brewed espresso and 1/4 cup raw sugar. Stir over medium heat until the sugar dissolves completely.
- **Simmer the Syrup:** Continue to simmer for 5 minutes, or until the syrup thickens and becomes syrupy.
- **Cool the Syrup:** Set the espresso syrup aside to cool completely.
- **Make the Panna Cotta:** In a saucepan, combine 2 cups heavy cream, 1/4 cup powdered sugar, and 1 vanilla bean, split and scraped (or 1 teaspoon vanilla extract). Simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture reduces by approximately one-third. This should take about 10-15 minutes.
- **Bloom the Gelatin:** While the cream mixture simmers, sprinkle 2 teaspoons of gelatin over 1/4 cup cold milk in a small bowl. Let it stand for 5 minutes to bloom.
- **Combine and Simmer:** Stir the bloomed gelatin mixture into the warm cream mixture. Simmer for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
- **Remove Vanilla and Cool:** Remove the vanilla bean (if using). Let the panna cotta mixture cool slightly.
- **Assemble the Dessert:** Drizzle the cooled espresso syrup into the bottom of 4 clear glasses or ramekins.
- **Layer and Chill:** Immediately pour the cooled panna cotta mixture over the espresso syrup. Gently swirl with a knife or toothpick to create a marbled effect.
- **Refrigerate:** Cover the glasses and refrigerate for at least 4-6 hours, or until the panna cotta is set and firm.
