Original recipe by, www.italianfoodforever.com

Ingredients:

2 1/2 cups milk, divided
2/3 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 envelopes of unflavored gelatin
1/3 cup of sugar

Topping:

1 package frozen blueberries, thawed
Sugar (desired sweetness)

Directions:

Sprinkle the gelatin over 1/2 cup of milk.  Let stand for 5 minutes, and mix well. 

In a saucepan, combine 2 cups of milk,  sugar, and cream.  Bring to just a boil.

Once the milk mixture comes to just a boil, remove from heat, and stir in the vanilla and the softened gelatin.

Pour into four 5-ounce ramekin cups.

Cover and chill for at least six hours, or up to 1 day.

Topping:

Blend the blueberries and sugar together in a food processor.  (SAVE SOME BLUEBERRIES FOR GARNISH)

Place the mixture over medium heat and bring to a boil.   Lower the heat, and simmer for 5 minutes.  Strain for seeds.

Cool

To serve, gently run a knife around the edge of each ramekin cup and invert onto a chilled plate. 

Drizzle the topping over each panna cotta.
