Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, add condensed milk, whipping cream, white chocolate chips, egg yolks, and vanilla extract. Place over medium heat, stirring gently for about 5 minutes until bubbling.
- Remove from heat and pour through a fine mesh sieve into a clean bowl to ensure a smooth base.
- Return the strained mixture to the saucepan and lower heat. Stir constantly for 10-12 minutes until thickened.
- Pour thickened mixture into a bowl, cover with plastic wrap touching the surface, and cool at room temperature for 30 minutes, then refrigerate.
- Once cooled, portion into 21g pieces and roll into balls.
- Roll each ball in granulated sugar to coat evenly.
- Freeze the sugar-coated brigadeiros for at least 30 minutes.
- Using a butane torch, caramelize the sugar topping until golden brown and bubbly.
- Place brigadeiros in cupcake liners or on a platter and serve.

Notes
Unfinished brigadeiros last up to 10 days in the fridge. For best results, freeze them before caramelizing.
