Preparation
  1. In a medium saucepan, combine whole milk and granulated sugar over low heat, stirring gently for about 5 minutes until the sugar dissolves.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together 55g of the warm milk mixture with pandan powder until smooth, then pour back into the saucepan.
  3. Soak the gelatin sheets in cold water for 5–10 minutes until softened.
  4. Gently heat the milk mixture again on low heat until it reaches approximately 50°C (122°F).
  5. Remove the gelatin sheets from the water, squeeze out excess water, and add to the warm milk mixture.
  6. Pour in the coconut milk and heavy cream, mixing gently until smooth.
  7. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a large bowl to catch any lumps.
  8. Carefully pour the strained mixture into molds and refrigerate for at least 4 hours until set.
  9. Garnish each panna cotta with shredded coconut just before serving.
