Ingredients:
10 gelatin leaves (or 3 packets powder gelatin)
4 cups heavy cream (See Note below)
4 cups whole milk
12 ounces Splenda (or other sweetener of your choice; See Note below)

Instructions:
- Soak gelatin in ice water and set aside. If using powdered gelatin, reserve a small amount of the milk to bloom the gelatin in.
- Bring heavy cream and milk to a boil and stir in sugar substitute until dissolved.
- Open vanilla bean pod and scrape out all the seeds and add to the cream.
- Gently stir in soft gelatin until all dissolved (or the milk/powdered gelatin mix).

- Chill 3 to 4 hours in the cooler to set.
Garnish the tops of the panna cotta with mixed fresh berries. Add some fresh mint or basil leaf if desired.
