I was hoping that this month's choices for Tuesdays with Dorie would be something that I could easily serve to a big crowd of guests. We continue with our once-a-week soup nights and generally about 25 people have been showing up each Monday night.
I baked the Sunday in Paris cakes (my son was traveling to Paris and it seemed like the appropriate thing to bake), and they were a big hit. But making Panna Cotta or the Soft Centered Chocolate Teacup Cakes for 25 just wasn't going to work.

So this week I made the Hot Chocolate Panna Cotta to take to a brunch with a few friends and it was delightful.
 |
| Heating up the milk, cream, and cocoa |
 |
| Melting the chocolate |
 |
| Bubbling around the edges |
 |
| The chocolate is melted and ready to be added to the cream |
 |
| Allowing the gelatin to bloom |
 |
I almost forgot to take a picture of the finished Panna Cotta! This is the last one.

We enjoyed this recipe: my husband is a big fan of Panna Cotta and its smooth texture.
