One of my favorite things to do in the kitchen is to do something that is easy to make, delicious to eat, and very attractive to look. There are thousands of recipes that are ready in 10 -15 minutes and they are extremely delicious, but one of the things I love the most about Panna Cottas is that they are so delicious but light desserts perfect for summertime entertaining.
What is different about this recipe is that you will end up having two different flavors in just a single serving. How great is that, guys, right? I love this kind of recipe because you offer your friends something refreshing and full in flavor. Red currants bring so much lightness and freshness to this recipe, but on the other hand, you have something that is the classic and all-time favorite – vanilla.
In one thing, I am sure if – you are going to love this recipe as I do, and you are going to make this all over again to show everybody how easy it is to make simple but very refreshing and delicious recipes in so much little time.
