Rumchata Coconut Cream Panna Cotta
Perhaps there’s something quietly magical about transforming simple ingredients into a dessert that feels both indulgent and serene. Picture this: a silky, chilled panna cotta, subtly spiced and luxuriously creamy, waiting to melt on your tongue after a long day. It’s the kind of treat that asks for nothing but a slow spoon and a quiet moment.
Ingredients
– 1 cup heavy cream, rich and velvety
– 1/2 cup whole milk, cold and fresh
– 1/4 cup granulated sugar, finely textured
– 1/4 cup Rumchata liqueur, warmly spiced
– 1/4 cup unsweetened coconut milk, creamy and smooth
– 1 packet unflavored gelatin, about 2 1/4 teaspoons
– 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract, aromatic and sweet
– A pinch of fine sea salt, to balance the sweetness
Instructions
1. Sprinkle the unflavored gelatin over 2 tablespoons of cold whole milk in a small bowl and let it bloom for 5 minutes until softened and spongy.
2. In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the heavy cream, remaining whole milk, granulated sugar, unsweetened coconut milk, and fine sea salt, stirring gently until the sugar fully dissolves and the mixture is warm to the touch, about 3-4 minutes—avoid boiling to prevent curdling.
3. Remove the saucepan from the heat and whisk in the bloomed gelatin mixture until completely dissolved and smooth, with no lumps visible.
4. Stir in the Rumchata liqueur and pure vanilla extract, mixing thoroughly to incorporate the flavors evenly.
5. Pour the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a liquid measuring cup or bowl to ensure a silky texture, free of any undissolved particles.
6. Divide the strained mixture evenly among 4 small ramekins or serving glasses, filling each about 3/4 full.
7. Cover the ramekins with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface of the mixture to prevent a skin from forming, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until fully set and firm to the touch.
8. To serve, run a thin knife around the edge of each ramekin and gently invert onto a plate, or enjoy directly from the glass for a simpler presentation.
Now, as you take that first spoonful, notice how it glides smoothly, releasing hints of cinnamon and coconut that dance with the creamy base. For a playful twist, top it with toasted coconut flakes or a drizzle of caramel, letting each bite tell a story of comfort and subtle spice.

Rumchata Coconut Cream Cheesecake
Holding this slice feels like cradling a quiet moment of indulgence, the kind that whispers of creamy dreams and tropical breezes. It’s a dessert that wraps you in warmth, blending the smooth embrace of cheesecake with the gentle kick of rum and the sweetness of coconut, perfect for those reflective evenings when time seems to slow down.
Ingredients
– 1 ½ cups of finely crushed graham cracker crumbs
– ½ cup of melted unsalted butter, rich and golden
– 24 ounces of softened cream cheese, luxuriously smooth
– 1 cup of granulated sugar, fine and crystalline
– 3 large farm-fresh eggs, at room temperature
– 1 cup of Rumchata liqueur, with its warm cinnamon notes
– ½ cup of full-fat coconut cream, velvety and rich
– 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract, aromatic and sweet
– 1 cup of heavy whipping cream, chilled and airy
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) to ensure even baking.
2. In a medium bowl, combine the finely crushed graham cracker crumbs and melted unsalted butter until the mixture resembles wet sand.
3. Firmly press the crumb mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form an even crust, using the back of a spoon to compact it—this prevents crumbling later.
4. Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, until lightly golden and fragrant, then remove and let it cool completely on a wire rack.
5. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese on medium speed with an electric mixer for 2 minutes, until smooth and free of lumps.
6. Gradually add the granulated sugar, continuing to beat for another 2 minutes until fully incorporated and creamy.
7. Add the farm-fresh eggs one at a time, beating on low speed after each addition just until blended—overmixing can incorporate too much air and cause cracking.
8. Pour in the Rumchata liqueur, full-fat coconut cream, and pure vanilla extract, mixing on low speed until the batter is homogenous and silky.
9. Gently fold in the chilled heavy whipping cream with a spatula to maintain a light texture, being careful not to deflate the mixture.
10. Pour the batter over the cooled crust in the springform pan, tapping the pan lightly on the counter to release any air bubbles.
11. Place the springform pan into a larger baking dish and create a water bath by pouring hot water into the outer dish until it reaches halfway up the sides of the springform pan—this gentle heat prevents the cheesecake from drying out or cracking.
12. Bake in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes, until the edges are set but the center still has a slight jiggle when gently shaken.
13. Turn off the oven, crack the door open, and let the cheesecake cool inside for 1 hour to gradual temperature change reduce the risk of sinking.
14. Remove from the oven, run a knife around the edge to loosen it from the pan, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or ideally overnight, to fully set and develop flavors.
Now, this cheesecake emerges with a velvety texture that melts on the tongue, layered with the spiced warmth of rum and the tropical whisper of coconut. Serve it chilled with a drizzle of extra coconut cream or a sprinkle of toasted coconut flakes for an added crunch that contrasts beautifully with its creamy depth.
