Welcome to the Valentine’s edition of Holiday Recipe Club! Interested in learning more or want to join? Message me here!
Valentine’s Day is often approached with mixed emotions. Those with a significant other and those without have their own opinions and traditions when it comes to the day, but whatever you’re doing should include dessert! 
This pretty pink dessert is perfect for the occasion. If you have a significant other that isn’t a chocolate lover this is exactly what you need! I recommend serving your panna cotta with a handful of milk crumbs and dollop of whipped cream. 
Strawberry Panna Cotta

- Whisk the cream mixture into the strawberry mixture until combined.

I met someone just the other day who wasn’t a chocolate lover. Quite honestly I was shocked. Who doesn’t love chocolate? I like strawberries though too so this would be a good dessert for me as well.
I know!! I can’t imagine living in a world without chocolate
Love the light pink color! Perfect for V’s day… Or any day of the year
Such incredible berries for February!!! And gorgeous panna cotta…glad you could please your sweetie
Thanks for organizing another wonderful Holiday Recipe Club~
Oh yum! What a wonderful dessert! It looks so creamy and delicious! I see so many yummy treats on the blog hop today, I’m going to have a hard time picking what I want to make!
Me too!
This looks absolutely beautiful and delicious. I love the beautiful color and how creamy it looks. I am definitely going to have to try making this. Thanks for a great recipe!
I used to HATE Valentine’s day – I was always alone and it stunk. Then, I met and married my hubby, and our first Valentine’s together warmed me up to the idea, but nothing will ever beat our 2nd one – our son was born on it! It’s always been a favorite day of mine ever since : ). Your panna cotta looks amazing!
Another winning recipe for our Holiday Recipe club! Looks beautiful and delicious! Thanks for organizing!
Ooooh, looks so yummy! I love panna cotta, and strawberry is always a winner
Nicely done!
Strawberries and panna cotta go together like peanut butter and chocolate! Yum!
Would you believe that I have never had panna cotta before? Looks like I need to remedy that!
This was the first time I had it. It was a nice change of pace from a super heavy dessert.
This sounds delicious! So pretty with the pink color too!
I just left a comment on Liz’s Skinny Chick Can Bake site about balsamic panna cotta and then I ended up here! Must be fate. What a great idea for a club.
Yes! It must be! I hope you will be able to join us in the future
I will take this right now–makes me so hungry just looking at it! What a wonderful recipe you created!

I have never had panna cotta but I looove strawberry flavor in things (which is weird because I don’t like whole strawberries…>.> don’t ask). This dessert looks lovely!
