Ingredients
  

  • 1 and 2/3 cups cream (400ml)
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup white granulated sugar
  • 1 vanilla bean or 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 (.125 ounce) package powdered gelatin (3,5gr)
  • 20 ml cold water

Instructions
 

  • In a deep saucepan heat the cream with the milk, sugar, and vanilla over medium heat. Stir until sugar dissolves. Bring just to boil and reduce to minimum. Leave for 5 minutes, remove the pan from the heat, and let the temperature drop.
  • In a very small bowl sprinkle gelatin over water. Heat gelatin for 10 seconds in the microwave until gelatin is dissolved.  Stir in the gelatin in the saucepan.
  • Strain the mixture and divide it into cups, jars, or individual ramekins (1/2 cup ramekins).
  • Let rest in the fridge for at least 4 hours, overnight is ideal.
  • Serve the dessert with fresh strawberries, blueberries, and honey.

Notes

  • If you choose individual ramekins, to unmold, dip one at a time into a bowl of warm water for a few seconds, and run a knife around the edge of each ramekin. Invert in the plate and serve.
  • You can make the dessert in advance, store it covered in the fridge, and finish it at the moment of serving with your favorite topping.
  • If there is any leftover, cover it with plastic wrap and store it in the fridge for up to 3 days. It´s better to separate the fruit from the custard.
