In case you didn’t read the title slow enough let’s say it again… Bourbon Poached Pear Panna Cotta. It’s okay, I’m salivating too.

I LOVE sweets; be it bags of candy, ice cream or homemade desserts, I’m in. This is why I rarely make them because I will devour whatever it is all day, every day until it’s gone; which in this house is only about 3 days. No amount of workouts are saving me from my lack of self-control dessert-obsessed self. Do you know what I love just as much as dessert? BOURBON.

So I’m craving dessert, checked the fridge and saw we had a container of creme fraiche I needed to use. Scavenging for other ingredients I had 2 ripe pears and all the ingredients out for Old Fashioneds from the night before. I knew I wanted to make a creamy and decadent dessert for two reasons. 1. When dessert is really rich it makes you eat A LOT less, good for that lack of self-control and 2. Panna cotta immediately came to mind and I knew I only had enough to make about four small dishes. Check and check! It really couldn’t of come together more perfectly.

This dessert is perfect for entertaining because you can make it ahead, there’s no bake time, and for a no stress easy recipe, it looks like a gourmet dessert sure to impress. Really for most people hearing you say the words ‘poached’ and ‘panna cotta‘ you’re already impressing your guests.

So whip up this delicious recipe whether it be for guests or just for yourself. Let me know what you think!
