White chocolate makes crème brûlée especially silky and mild, which is why the caramelised top matters even more. That thin brittle crust balances the sweetness and makes every spoonful more interesting.

Ingredients
- Double cream – 500 ml
- White chocolate, chopped – 150 g
- Vanilla pod or extract – 1
