Key lime yogurt panna cotta with shortbread

Panna cotta is the answer when you have a flavored yogurt and an hour to chill. This shelf has done the work already—the key lime yogurt is silken and tart enough to make a set custard without cream. Serve it cold with buttery shortbread crumbs.

Serves 2. 75 minutes, 15 at the stove.

You need

To buy

  • 1 teaspoon unflavored gelatin
  • 1/2 cup [120 ml] heavy cream

From your shelf

  • 1 cup [240 g] key lime whole milk greek yogurt

Staples

  • 4 tablespoons [55 g] butter
  • 2/3 cup [85 g] flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons sugar

  1. Heat 1/4 cup water in a small saucepan over low heat until steaming, then sprinkle 1 teaspoon unflavored gelatin over it and let sit for one minute to bloom, stirring gently until it dissolves completely.
  2. Whisk together 1 cup key lime yogurt and 1/2 cup heavy cream in a bowl until smooth, then pour the warm gelatin mixture into the yogurt while stirring constantly until incorporated.
  3. Divide the mixture between two glasses or bowls and refrigerate until set, about one hour.
  4. While the panna cotta chills, make shortbread: rub 4 tablespoons butter, 2/3 cup flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt together with your fingertips until the mixture looks like sand, then press it into a small baking pan.
  5. Bake at 325°F [165°C] until pale golden at the edges, about twelve minutes, then let cool on the pan for five minutes and break into rough crumbs.
  6. Top each panna cotta with a handful of shortbread crumbs just before serving.

Note You can swap the yogurt for plain Greek yogurt plus 2 tablespoons key lime juice concentrate if you have it. Panna cotta keeps refrigerated for two days. Serve with strong coffee or iced tea for a light dinner.
