Panna Cotta is traditionally made with milk but I coconut milk as a substitute so you can still enjoy a delicious dessert if you are dairy free. My boyfriend just loves my Coconut Panna Cotta but I like to keep it interesting by tweaking the recipe. I’ve made Pumpkin Panna Cotta and now Chocolate Coconut Panna Cotta. You can still taste the coconut but the chocolate makes the dessert so much richer.

What a great treat for the chocolate lover in you!
Where is the recipe? I only see pictures & a description
I'm sorry about that. I was having a plugin problem but it's all fixed now.
Yum! Nothing beats the combination of rich chocolate and creamy coconut.. so I know this panna cotta is just as delicious as it looks.
Love this recipe with the coconut milk. Looks fairly simple. I'll try it with a sugar substitute and let you know how it turned out.
