Strawberry Panna Cotta & Passion Fruit Jelly Cups

Valentine's Day is almost here and if you prefer having a nice romantic dinner at home, I suggest you to try this easy, light and delectable dessert: Strawberry panna cotta and passion fruit jelly cups. You can make this dessert ahead, it's quick, you can adapt it to your favorite flavors, although I think strawberry and passion fruit is a great combination and they just match so perfectly with the theme of Valentine's day!

The strawberry panna cotta is creamy, rich and fruity (think of a strawberry creamsicle!); while the passion fruit jelly adds a bit of fresh tanginess, just perfect to end a lovely evening with your significant other. Also, if your other half isn't fond of chocolate (I know mine isn't!), this type of dessert is a good alternative to keep things valentine's-y and sweet without the chocolate overdose.

This recipe yields about 500 ml, so it's perfect for two servings in 250 ml cups, although the one's I used were quite small yogurt cups of 100 ml each, so I got five small servings.
