Spread the white chocolate chips in a small heavy bottom saute pan and place on a control freak set to 225°F for 5 minutes.
Stir the chocolate every 5 minutes until it turns a golden color. to accelerate the caramelization raise the heat slowly to 275°F. The chocolate may slightly crystalize, this is fine as they will be broken down in the blender at a later step.
Do not raise the control freak above 275°F, this will cause the chocolate to seize and burn.
Mix the chocolate and milk together and allow the mixture to come up to 185°F.

This looks wonderful! Could you let us know how you plated it for the photo? Are those berries, or some spherized condiment? Are those ground nuts at the ends?

Hi Tom, those are plated with our Christine Le Tennier Flavor Pearls (I believe that was Strawberry, which is discontinued) and coated Culinary Crystals.
