I did not make these, so I'll put that out there right away.
I DID, however, eat a LARGE amount of these. They are heavenly! Thank you to Jessa for the contribution to our pool party, and for the recipe, found below. :)
Bailey’s Panna Cotta Jello Shots
Gather the following ingredients:
3 packs Unflavored Gelatin
2 cups Heavy Cream
½ cup Brown Sugar
1 cup Bailey’s
½ cup Vodka
½ cups buttermilk
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
1 lb 72% or lighter chocolate
Canola Oil
Gather the following equipment:
Small saucepan
Large saucepan
Lg mixing bowl
Whisk
Silicone Spat
8x8x2 baking dish or similar size

Begin by mixing the gelatin with ½ cup cold water to let it soen.
Mix your vodka and baileys together and set in freezer to chill quickly.
Pour cream into saucepan and put over high heat until bubbles form around the edge. Reduce
heat to medium, whisk in gelatin until dissolved. Now mix in sugar with silicone spat until
completely dissolved.
Pour cream mixture into large mixing bowl. Add vanilla & buttermilk, stir together. Now add
chilled bailey’s & vodka mixture. Stir well. Pour into baking dish and let set in refrigerator for
about two hours, just until firm and set. Once set, cut into bite size, about 1 oz ish, pieces. Set
pieces slightly apart on wax or parchment paper lined baking sheet. Set in freezer while
prepping chocolate.
Chop chocolate into small chunks. Fill large saucepan with about an inch of water. Bring to boil
over high heat, then reduce to medium low. Set a clean, metal bowl on top of saucepan - you
now have a double boiler. Add chocolate and 3 tbsps of canola oil to the mixing bowl. Stir with
silicone spat just until all chocolate is melted - remove from heat once its all melted.
Remove baking sheet from freezer. Pour melted chocolate over panna cotta shots to cover. Place
in fridge for just a few minutes to set chocolate. Once set, use a small pairing knife to cut bites
out and peel of paper, serve to friends.
