- In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, gently heat 2 cups of milk and 1 cup of heavy cream over medium-low heat for 5 minutes. Do not boil.
- Add 6 ounces of finely chopped white chocolate (or bittersweet dark chocolate) to the warm milk mixture. Stir in 1/4 cup of granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract.
- Continue stirring gently until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth and creamy.
