TDG: Desperate Measures: Panna Cotta

I got to the third paragraph and realized that Mamster is a fool. No dessert portion is too big. He's a fool for suggesting it. What does he want -- smaller portions? You may have realized that in the winter you can always put on more clothes. In the summer, there's only so much you can take off before you must sit and suffer. At dessert, you can always eat less food. You're not a goldfish. But when the plate of cute, little dessert-lings is empty, you can only sit and suffer.

Note the wet slurping sound as this thread is dredged up from the depths.

Okay, Saturday dinner guests -- foodies & knowledgeable, too. Tough crowd. I'm thinking a simple vanilla panna cotta with some sort of fruit compote or sauce. All suggestions welcome.

I like mamster's recipe, but if I want to skip the coconut part, can I just use all cream?

Thanks for the help.
