Panna Cotta

Candied Walnuts
- Preheat oven to 325. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray with nonstick spray. In a medium bowl combine walnuts, agave nectar, brown sugar and salt. Stir to coat walnuts evenly.
- Spread in a single layer on baking sheet, breaking up clumps. Bake for about 15 minutes. Remove from oven, allow to cool, and store in an airtight container.
To Serve

Notes
- Panna Cotta will need to chill at least for 2 hours in the fridge.
- Milk - whole milk will make a creamier and richer panna cotta. Can use lowfat, but it won't be as rich or creamy.
- Yogurt - full fat will be the richest and creamiest, low fat will not be as rich or creamy.
- The recipe makes more candied walnuts than you need, but you'll find plenty of uses for them - even just as snacks! Store in an air tight co
