Instructions
- Warm the milk and sugar in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring, until the sugar dissolves and the milk steams, 4 to 5 minutes; don't let it boil.
- Remove from the heat, add the white chocolate and let stand for 1 minute.
- Whisk until completely melted and smooth; if a few pieces remain, return the pan to the lowest heat for a few seconds.
- Whisk in the vanilla and salt.
- Cool, pour into a clean bottle and refrigerate.
Tips
- Use a white chocolate bar that lists cocoa butter as an ingredient; chips with stabilizers melt less smoothly.
- It thickens in the fridge; warm the bottle in hot water or stir in a splash of milk.
