YOGURT AND HONEY PANNA COTTA
4 servings

A light and tangy take on the classic. The use of less gelatin makes for a very creamy, barely set dessert. It should be enjoyed straight from the ramekin, and is particularly good when the cream is infused with elderflower blossoms (see Flavorings for Custard Bases).
