Amaretto and Vanilla Panna Cotta with Cherry Compote
Panna cotta is a popular set cream dessert from Italy. This recipe is made from a combination of cream, semi skimmed milk and yogurt, which is a little lighter than the traditional version. The chilled greek yogurt adds a little sharpness, as well as helping the dessert to set more quickly. The cherry compote topping is quick and simple to make and compliments the almond liquor flavour in the panna cotta.
