Buttermilk Panna Cotta

This year, we started leaving daily treats in the cottages and suites. This delicious panna cotta was one of our most requested recipes. We are still getting amazing raspberries and blackberries at the Holland Farmers Market but we know that they will come to an end. This winter we’ll experiment with adding chocolate to this easy recipe.

By the way, our ceramic ramekins came from Pier One. They are very reasonably priced and who doesn’t like their own individual dessert!

Buttermilk Panna Cotta
