Ingredients
- 1 cup low-fat milk
- 1 cup white chocolate chips (reduced-fat, if available)
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons cold water
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pinch salt
Directions
Step 1
In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and cold water until it forms a smooth slurry. Set aside.
Step 2
In a small saucepan, combine the low-fat milk and a pinch of salt. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it is warm but not boiling.
Step 3
Add the white chocolate chips to the saucepan. Stir constantly using a silicone spatula or whisk until the chocolate has melted completely and the mixture is smooth.
Step 4
Reduce the heat to low and slowly add the cornstarch slurry to the saucepan while stirring continuously. Allow the mixture to simmer for 2-3 minutes until it thickens slightly.
Step 5
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Taste and adjust sweetness if desired, though the white chocolate will naturally provide enough sweetness.
Step 6
Let the sauce cool slightly before using. It will continue to thicken as it cools.
Step 7
Serve warm over desserts of choice, or allow it to cool completely and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Warm gently before serving if needed.
