Caramel Coffee Panna Cotta

I love the coffee and caramel flavour combination. My favourite drink from Starbucks is the Caramel Cream Frappuccino. I wanted to recreate something like that today, with more of a coffee kick. This Panna Cotta is so creamy and smooth. Bursting with caramel flavour, and a subtle hint of coffee. I have to say, I was really happy with this recipe and I know you will be too.

This recipe calls for brewed liquid coffee. The strength is entirely up to you, but don't choose something too strong. As this will overpower the flavour of the caramel.
